Paras Defence and Space Technologies Limited has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Israel’s Cielo Inertial Solutions to enhance India’s self-reliance in precision navigation systems. This agreement, announced on October 13, 2025, focuses on adapting and producing advanced inertial sensors, particularly closed-loop Fiber Optic Gyroscopes (FOGs), essential for applications in missile guidance, aircraft avionics, and unmanned systems. By potentially establishing local production facilities, Paras Defence aims to foster technology transfer and skill development, aligning with India’s defense sector’s growing demands. This collaboration not only strengthens India’s indigenous capabilities but also signifies a critical step toward achieving greater autonomy in defense technologies, reflecting the nation’s commitment to enhancing its strategic defense posture in an increasingly complex geopolitical landscape.
