DRDO Transfers 7 Indigenous Defence Technologies to Tri-Services
The DRDO, which is like the science and tech department of the Indian military, gave seven new technologies to the Army, Navy, and Air Force.
These technologies were made in India and help with things like electronic warfare, naval infrastructure, and underwater surveillance.
The DRDO worked with Indian companies to develop these technologies, which means India doesn't have to import them from other countries.
The committee also approved 12 new projects to keep making more advanced technologies for the military.
They want to make sure these new technologies are quickly put into use by the military.
DRDO handed over seven indigenous defence technologies to the three Services under the TDF scheme.
Technologies cover domains like electronic warfare, naval infrastructure, and underwater surveillance.
Technologies include a High-Voltage Power Supply for Airborne Self-Protection Jammers and a Tide-Efficient Gangway for Naval Jetties.
The Committee approved 12 new projects spanning strategic, aerospace, naval, and electronic warfare technologies.
The Committee emphasized expediting the processing of TDF projects to align with evolving strategic and technological requirements.
