India Needs Faster Defence Innovation, Official Says

India's Air Force is worried that making new weapons and tools for defence takes too long.

A top official, Air Marshal Bharti, said that India needs to get better at coming up with new ideas and making them real, from building new planes to using space technology.

He wants the country to rely more on its own technology and speed up innovation.

Future wars will involve everything from cheap drones to advanced robots working with people.
