We should be part of FCAS only as a co-development partner, not to pour our money into it in the name of ToT. We need to move away from that mentality. - Former IAF Cheif RKS Bhadauria

@sssdefence Varaha Acoustic Anti drone system offer ranges upto Nano drones: These can be detected between 200 and 500 meters. Standard small drones (e.g., 10 kg): The system has a current detection range of approximately 1 kilometer. Ranges will be increased to 1.5km in future
#EXCLUSIVE | DRDO Initiates Development of Acoustic-Based Drone Detection System SSPL, DRDO to collaborate with Indian vendors for the design and development of an indigenous Acoustic-Based Drone Detection System, an EoI has been released for the same. The system will passively detect and identify incoming drones by capturing their acoustic signatures through high-sensitivity microphones integrated with suitable parabolic reflectors. The captured acoustic signals will be digitised through a Data Acquisition System (DAQ) and processed using an AI-powered platform incorporating Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms. 📸 For Representation
