INDIAN ARMY HAS BOUGHT NEW HERON DRONES FROM ISRAEL :

      Israel has handed over state-of-the-art Heron drones to the Indian Army under the emergency procurement clause. Although delayed by a few months due to COVID-19, receiving these drones has given a big boost to the Indian Army's surveillance capability to monitor Chinese activities in the Ladakh sector.

      According to top government sources, the deployment of these new Heron drones in the eastern Ladakh sector has already begun. It is said that these new Heron drones are thousands of times better and more sophisticated than the drones that the Indian Army has, and their anti-jamming capabilities are much better than the previous drones. The government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has given Rs 500 crore to the defense forces to improve their combat capabilities under the emergency financial powers, so that they can buy equipment and systems. After the big drones, now small or mini drones are being bought from Indian companies. Some more projects of the armed forces have reached the final stage, if they get an extension they will be able to buy equipment to improve the combat capability as the emergency procurement powers under the capital acquisition route expired on 31st August 2021. So the armed forces are now seeking its extension.
