Ground systems will feature the Pralay missile, advanced towed artillery gun systems, the Pinaka multiple launch rocket system and main battle tank (MBT) Arjun Mk I and II and the Indian Light Tank. Engineering solutions such as a modular bridging system, drone detection radar, Uttam AESA radar and holographic sight will be presented with naval steel and composite armour for wheeled armoured platforms.

Chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) protection equipment will be on show, including Automatic Chemical Agent Detection and Alarm (ACADA) systems, chemical agent monitors, a CBRN water purification system, a five kg backpack and an NBC suit Mark V. Protective gear such as blast protection suits and ballistic helmets will be exhibited alongside prototype and material technologies including a rapid prototype model of the Kaveri engine and its spatial reality display.

The exhibition aims to inspire the public and especially the youth for a closer look at capabilities that strengthen national defence. The Defence Research and Development Organisation hopes the event will encourage interest in defence science and technology and highlight collaboration and indigenous development opportunities.
