What It Is

Indian aerospace/defence electronics company: EW suites, RWR, jamming and mission systems; reported SATCOM-on-the-move and secure datalink work with DRDO for IAF fleets. Company states integrated R&D and manufacturing. Drone Expo 2026 exhibitor. Value-chain position in the Atlas: Develops → Electronic warfare & ELINT (L3); Develops → Software-defined radio & secure comms (L4). Evidence discipline: this record separates company claims from independent evidence. Classifications above carry their evidence level; the technology-origin class is 'UNKNOWN'. Exhibiting at Drone Expo 2026 establishes market presence only — not indigenous technology, Indian manufacturing, procurement or deployment.
