National Aerospace Labs Issues RFP for Loitering UAV Development

National Aerospace Laboratories (NAL) has launched a Request for Proposal (RFP) seeking partners to develop cutting-edge loitering unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This initiative is aimed at advancing India?s defence technology and bolstering its capabilities in aerial surveillance and precision strikes.

The RFP outlines requirements for the design, development, and delivery of loitering UAVs that can perform extended surveillance and attack missions. These UAVs are expected to be equipped with advanced avionics, high-resolution imaging systems, and precision-guided munitions. The project is a key part of NAL's strategy to enhance indigenous defence technology and reduce reliance on foreign systems.

The development of loitering UAVs will enable more effective monitoring and targeted operations in both military and strategic scenarios. The technology promises to offer significant improvements in mission flexibility and operational efficiency, with applications ranging from border security to counter-terrorism operations.

Interested firms are invited to submit their proposals, including technical specifications, development timelines, and cost estimates. The project reflects India?s growing emphasis on strengthening its defence sector through domestic innovation and technological advancement.

This move aligns with the broader defence modernization efforts by the Indian government, aiming to position the country at the forefront of global aerospace technology.
