The Indian army has integrated the Nagastra 1 loitering munition, designed by Economic Explosives Limited (EEL), as its first indigenous man-portable suicide drones. These drones enhance the army's precision strike capabilities against enemy training camps and infiltrators, with a focus on reducing dependence on imports and promoting self-reliance in defense technology. With the potential for exports to friendly nations, the Nagastra 1 showcases India's advancement in developing cost-effective solutions for modern warfare.
