Indian Army to Procure Made-in-India Drone Jammers
The Indian Army is getting new tools to fight against enemy drones!
They're buying special devices from an Indian company called Paras Defence.
These devices, about the size of a briefcase, can block drones from up to 3 kilometers away.
This is happening because of recent events where drones were used.
The army wants to be prepared for these kinds of attacks.
The company has already made these jammers and sold some to other countries.
They're hoping to close the deal soon.
The new tools will help the army protect against drones, which are becoming more common in modern conflicts.
