BrahMos Primary Offensive Weapon, Akashteer Used For Defence: DRDO Chief On Operation Sindoor

Operation Sindoor was a "declaration" of India's ability to stand tall through self-reliance, strategic foresight, and indigenous technological strength, Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) chairman Samir Kamat said on Saturday (August 9, 2025).

Speaking at the 14th convocation of the Defence Institute of Advanced Technology (DIAT) in Pune, Mr. Kamat said the highly coordinated, multi-dimensional operation along the western borders highlighted not just the courage of the soldiers but also the technological backbone that supported them.

After Operation Sindoor’s success, he expects India’s defence exports to double in the next two to three years.
