With rising instances of drone-based aerial threats to restricted installations under defence and private airspace, the Defender aims to provide a first-of-a-kind capability to the Indian defence establishment to get rid of rogue drones flying over unauthorised airspace.
The Defender has been launched at a time when drone-based threats continue to challenge important assets worldwide.
