It's being said that a version is being made of that
Already exported to other countries? Impressive, considering India has not been able to, as yet, export the Lakshya PTA( from HAL) though it is considered good quality. There could be low profile companies exporting fairly sophisticated stuff in the defense sector. There is this company, with the name "Lohia" that has been exporting drone components to Israel and possibly other countries. Here it is: https://theprint.in/defence/indian-...-prized-global-kamikaze-drones-market/806722/

Anti drone system.

Last time I checked, it would come with AI firing solution.
wouldn't a belt fed system/drum based based on mg gun be more apt? I guess when DRDO's gatling gun is realised and inducted, using that would be more apt - provided AI based single rifle based system have not been perfected by then.

These systems are being made by the forces themselves in house. These are more of a jugaad system which they have came up.
Even the automation part has been developed in house by them without any input from outside agency. So its basically putting up with what is already available instead of looking for something from outside.

thats why i confused why mg/gpmg was not used. It would have given longer range, unless the system they are developing whether AI or not has engagement distance limited to as far as human eye can see

Its genius and embarrassing at the same time. We know the forces are resourceful but for them to have to go to this lengths is embarrassing.
