India’s naval modernization has catalyzed the demand for indigenous weapons, spotlighting Bharat Dynamics Ltd (BDL) and Solar Industries as trusted suppliers. BDL, with a robust history in missile systems, is contracted to deliver Medium-Range Surface-to-Air Missiles and specializes in Anti-Submarine Warfare capabilities, including torpedoes and ASW suites. Meanwhile, Solar Industries stands out for its advanced explosive formulations and contributions to naval-grade materials, having developed underwater-stable explosives and indigenous ammunition. These developments not only enhance the operational readiness of the Indian Navy but also underscore the strategic importance of indigenization in defense procurement, reflecting India’s commitment to strengthening its maritime defense capabilities and reducing reliance on foreign suppliers.
