The 515 Army Base Workshop has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with IndyASTRA Technologies to enhance AI-enabled drone systems for the Indian Army. This partnership aims to develop an AI-based Flight Control System and a Standard Drone Operating Platform to modernize unmanned flight operations, improving autonomy and adaptability in diverse battlefield conditions. IndyASTRA will provide technical expertise for the integration of these systems, promoting self-reliance by reducing dependence on foreign components. The initiative is expected to accelerate the deployment of advanced drone technologies in the Army, thereby strengthening India’s indigenous defense capabilities and enhancing operational efficiency across various terrains. This collaboration underscores India’s commitment to enhancing its defense autonomy and technological prowess.
