DRDO to test shoulder-fired air defence missiles at high altitudes, know all about it

Share
The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) is set to conduct high-altitude trials of indigenous shoulder-fired air defence missiles. These trials are a precursor to handing over the missile systems to the Indian Army for user assessments. Developed to meet the Indian Army and Air Force’s need for Very Short Range Air Defence (VSHORAD) systems, these missiles are designed to counter aerial threats such as drones, fighter aircraft, and helicopters in border areas.
