Spear Corps Demonstrates Armed Polaris RZR ATV in High-Altitude Drills

On November 9, 2025, the Indian Army’s Spear Corps demonstrated the capabilities of an armed Polaris RZR All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) configured for mountain warfare. The high-performance ATV was equipped with a 12.7 mm NSV heavy machine gun and the Bharat Electronics Limited LASER DAZZLER-5 counter drone system, blending mobility with advanced countermeasure technology. This demonstration took place in the challenging terrains of Arunachal Pradesh, underscoring the vehicle’s role in enhancing tactical mobility, rapid troop deployment, and forward logistics in remote and rugged border areas. The Polaris RZR’s lightweight, compact design and robust suspension allow it to navigate difficult terrain such as steep trails and dense forests, vital for operations near India’s borders with China. This induction is part of the Indian Army’s broader modernization efforts to strengthen operational readiness in sensitive high-altitude sectors. The Spear Corps also actively integrates drone technology and other advanced systems in its operations, reflecting the force’s focus on technological enhancement and agility in difficult environments. This advancement significantly boosts India’s defensive and rapid response capabilities in northern border regions.
