Indian Air Force requires three systems to protect bases from attack by multiple swarm drones

With the threat posed by unmanned aerial systems growing by the day, the Indian Air Force (IAF) has chalked out the requirement for different mobile systems to counter such threats in different operational scenarios, particularly that from multiple swarm drones.

In separate Requests for Proposals (RFP) issued this week, the IAF has sought up to 200 Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) and 10 each of Micro Munitions Systems (MMS) and Kamikaze Drone Systems (KDS).
