DRDO and L&T Initiate Trials for Indigenous Light Tank Zorawar

09 Jul 2024 CW Team

The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Larsen & Toubro (L&T) have commenced advanced stage trials for the indigenous light tank named Zorawar. This marks a pivotal milestone in India's quest for self-reliance in defence technology.

Zorawar, designed and developed jointly by DRDO and L&T, aims to meet the operational requirements of the Indian Army with its advanced features and capabilities. The tank is equipped with state-of-the-art technologies and has undergone rigorous testing to ensure its performance under various conditions.

The trials, which are currently underway, involve comprehensive assessments of the tank's mobility, firepower, and survivability in simulated battlefield scenarios. These tests are crucial to validate Zorawar's readiness for deployment and its ability to meet the stringent requirements of modern warfare.

The development of Zorawar underscores India's strategic push towards enhancing indigenous defence manufacturing capabilities. It aligns with the government's initiatives such as Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat, aimed at reducing dependency on foreign defence equipment and promoting domestic innovation and production.

Once successfully tested and certified, Zorawar is expected to bolster India's defence preparedness significantly, offering the armed forces a potent asset tailored to their operational needs.
