After Operation Sindoor, preparations are underway to make India's army more powerful. The Defense Acquisition Council (DAC) headed by Defense Minister Rajnath Singh is going to hold an important meeting this week, in which proposals worth more than Rs 1 lakh crore can be approved.
This council is the top unit of the Defense Ministry, which takes decisions to buy big weapons and technology for the army. In this meeting, many important proposals will be put forward for the army, air Force and Navy. There will be special emphasis on systems related to surveillance, air defense and maritime security. Its purpose is to make the three armies of the country more modern and strengthen India on the security front.
Many big proposals may get approval this week
According to a TOI report, the Defense Acquisition Council (DAC) is going to approve many big proposals this week to further strengthen India's defense preparedness. These include two important projects that will take the capabilities of the army and the air Force to new heights.
The army will get a quick reaction air defense system
Under this proposal costing around Rs 30,000 crore, the indian army will get the Quick Reaction Surface-to-Air Missile System (QRSAM) developed by DRDO. This system is capable of instantly eliminating air threats coming within a range of 30 kilometers. This is considered a big step towards strengthening India's layered air defense i.e. layer-by-layer air security.
I-STAR aircraft
The indian air Force is going to buy three new I-STAR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Targeting and Reconnaissance) aircraft. These aircraft will be procured from international manufacturers, which will later be modified in india in collaboration with DRDO's Airborne System Center and private companies. These aircraft will prove to be very effective in providing accurate information in the battlefield, monitoring enemy activities and planning accurate attacks.
The indian government is now going to take big steps to further strengthen the country's security. Many important proposals may get approval in the first major defense meeting to be held after Operation Sindoor. This meeting is being led by Defense minister Rajnath Singh.
DRDO's sea Mines for Navy
The indian Navy has proposed to include special mines to stop enemy submarines and ships in the sea. These mines have been made by DRDO, which can attack the enemy while staying in the depths of the sea.
