He highlighted the depth of India’s defence industrial capabilities and called for closer cooperation built on the strong bilateral relationship between the two countries.

The exhibition and seminar served as a platform for industrial collaboration, co-development and capacity building, with 21 Indian defence companies showcasing specialised products across domains such as shipbuilding, armoured vehicles, UAVs, missile systems, cyber security, weapons, ammunition, optical devices and protection systems. Senior officials from Kenya’s defence establishment participated, underlining the growing momentum in defence engagement.
