Finally we are seeing a visible Indian presence in Global Arms Market.BOYS PLAYED WELL!!!
India has bagged a deal worth $40 million to supply 4 indigenous DRDO-developed-BEL-built Swathi weapon locating radars to Armenia by beating Russian and Polish firms.
The radar provide fast, automatic and accurate location of enemy weapons like mortars, shells and rockets within its 50-km range and can simultaneously handle multiple projectiles fired from different weapons at different locations. The Indian Army is also using the same radars at LoC to trace the source of attack by Pakistani positions. The system was given for trial to Army in 2018.
The Defence Ministry is also now looking at other orders from South-East Asia, Latin America and Middle-East countries for boosting defence exports target to ₹35,000crore.
Understand that these are not exactly "drone" drones, but basically extra long ranged ATGMs with glide wings (with camera in front instead of seeker) guided like flying a kamikaze drone.
Expect a Namica-like launcher system.

Hope it will grow rapidly in next few years.
We should also consider offering naval systems and subsystems to friendly countries like Vietnam, Myanmar, Sri Lanka,UAE , Armenia and Cypress etc.
Also I wish India should seriously consider strengthening Afghan Government so that the Talibs won’t rollover in near future.
A strong and stable Afghan is must for India.
We should not leave them on their own this time.
