Well the research and development establishment of India has developed the "RUDRA", a new gun mounted remotely operated vehicle.

The RUDRA is especially designed for Army and Paramilitary forces to provide an autonomous vehicle to perform counter insurgency operations, hostage situations and hold-ups within buildings reducing risk for the soldiers

RUDRA unmanned ground vehicle


The RUDRA can be used with its LOS (Line Of Sight) to a maximum range of 500 m and 200 m in urban area with a maximum endurance of 3 hours.

The RUDRA uses a 6x6 wheeled platform which able the vehicle to be used in all-terrain as well as suitable for urban environment.

Another indigenous combat UAV successfully tested
The Jatayu Combat Drone was designed and created locally utilising cutting-edge precision manufacturing methods.


An indigenously manufactured Combat Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (CUAV) drone has undergone successful testing by a Mumbai based start up Jatayu Unmanned Systems.

A field test was carried out in cooperation with the law enforcement agencies in Mumbai and a standard issue assault rifle weapon was live-fired mounted on a UAV platform.

Known as “Jatayu Aim-X,” the drone had debuted at the Bharat Drone Mahotsav, earlier this year in New Delhi from May 27-28.

Referring to its UCAV as “India’s First Combat-Ready UAV,” an official company statement claims that it has been producing drones for use in the military.

Adding that the drone was designed and created locally utilising cutting-edge precision manufacturing methods. The Jatayu drone features a separate ground control station and may also be operated remotely through satellite.

Quoting Capt Aman Johri, CEO of Jatayu Unmanned Systems, the statement states: “Jatayu Aim-X is a fully ‘Make in India’ UAV platform and has been built specifically for the Indian scenario.”

Highlighting India’s need to be prepared for the emerging threats in the future, the company CEO says that the UAV platform built locally will help in saving critical lives on the frontlines. In the coming weeks, the company is set to test their platform with other units of the Indian Army.

According to the company the UAV has been under development since 2016 and previously it has been live-fired successfully during trials in collaboration with the Indian armed forces. And has obtained an accuracy of 93 percent on target.

Besides the military sector, the company statement has said that its all weather and all terrain drones are providing RPAS services in the civil activities like mapping drones, agriculture drones, and Logistics drones.

According to reports by 2030, India has the potential to become a global drone hub. And to achieve this milestone, India needs almost 100,000 drone pilots in the coming years.

for an IBG, mobile air defence systems will travel along with them beyond forward areas.

Indian Army Approved Development of AI-Powered Robots for Offensive & Defensive Operation
With the approval of the construction of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered unmanned autonomous land robots, the Indian Army has made a tremendous advancement towards the future. With their ability to perform both defensive and offensive tasks, these robots have the potential to completely transform the Indian military.

There are many benefits of integrating AI into land robots. These robots are capable of operating in dangerous conditions, completing jobs faster and more precisely, and even participating in war. Because of their own intelligence, they are able to make decisions instantly and change course on their own without the need for human assistance.

The Indian Army sees a variety of functions for these AI-powered robots. They might serve as reconnaissance units in offensive operations, obtaining intelligence and locating enemy targets. In addition, they might be used to launch targeted strikes, suppressive fire, or even penetrate defences.

In a defensive role, these robots can patrol borders and protect important infrastructure. They can also be utilised to find and remove mines, greatly lowering the danger to human soldiers. Furthermore, in times of conflict, their ability to deliver medical care and first aid in isolated locations may effectively save many lives.

There are unique difficulties involved in creating and implementing such sophisticated robots. Ethical concerns about autonomous weapons, the necessity for effective cybersecurity measures, and ensuring seamless interface with existing military systems are critical areas that must be carefully considered and developed.

Still, the advantages of AI-powered land robots are significantly greater than the drawbacks. The Indian Army may greatly increase soldier safety, boost operational effectiveness, and obtain a decisive advantage in the contemporary battlefield by adopting this technology.

Indian Army's unmanned 'STRIKE' for Ladakh-like high-altitude challenges
The Indian Army is looking for unmanned ground vehicles (UGV) to assist infantry troops in high-altitude areas as part of the experiment "Strike."


The Indian Army is on the lookout for Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) to assist infantry troops in high-altitude areas with surveillance, tactical reconnaissance, targeting enemy positions, delivering critical supplies, and carrying out rapid evacuations.

The need for such a platform stems from the difficulties encountered in Ladakh, such as incidents involving a military clash with China at heights of over 15,000 feet.

The army's requirements for the platform state that the unmanned ground vehicles, or UGVs, should be able to carry a load of 250500 kg and should be able to operate in high altitude areas along the northern borders—a reference to the frontier with China.

A weapon platform variant mounted with a machine gun has also been listed as one of the requirements that the UGVs should have.

Twelve Indian companies will showcase 35 such platforms to the Indian Army in Babina from December 9-14 in an experiment called "Strike"—surveillance, tactical recce, intelligence, kinetic effect, and evacuation systems.

“Over 30 different types of unmanned ground vehicles will be showcased by the developers, and these will be imbedded with sub-units for tactical exploitation. The experiment involves various categories of UGVs, viz., surveillance, reconnaissance, intelligence, kinetic effect, logistics, casualty evacuation,” said an official.

The unmanned vehicle that the army is looking for should perform recce and surveillance and have a load carrier aimed at last-mile delivery and casualty evacuation.

According to the army's requirements, the UGV should be able to operate in varied terrain conditions, including deserts, plains, mountainous and high-altitude areas, existing along our borders.

The army wants the vehicles to be operated remotely as well as in an autonomous mode.

The unmanned vehicles can also be used for explosive detection and neutralisation of improvised explosive devices. The army has stated that a robotic arm with the capacity to lift a minimum weight of 5 kg is a must.

The requirements further state that it should be able to place explosives and carry out remote detonations of identified IEDs and mines.

● هندوستان برای اولین‌بار از هوش مصنوعی (AI) برای انتخاب بهترین سربازان رژه رونده در هفتاد و ششمین روز ارتش خود استفاده کرد...

@Milita_Camp

For the first time, India used artificial intelligence (AI) to select the best soldiers to march on its 76th Army Day...

What BS. The Army chooses by units, not by individual soldiers to march

Red Team pentesting.
Now the next Lahori Sundari you chat with and reveal defence secrets to in exchange for bob -o- vagene might as well be an AI chatbot from your own side, you will get punished but hey, atleast you didn't sell your country because of hawas and vaasna
