Indian Army develops 'Kharga' drone

New and high-tech drones are constantly being added to the Indian Army's fleet. The 'Kharga' kamikaze drone is another drone developed by the Indian Army. It can be used for intelligence and surveillance purposes. It is also capable of carrying explosives. It can fly at a high speed of approximately 40 meters per second. According to reports, it is equipped with GPS, navigation systems, and high-definition cameras. To evade enemy detection, the drone features technology that can evade electromagnetic spectrum jamming. Simply put, it is extremely difficult for the enemy to track.
According to an NDTV report, 'Kharga', which can fly up to 500 meters at a time, is a type of suicide drone. It can easily destroy enemy targets. Officials claim that 'Kharga' cannot be detected by radar.
The special thing is that the drone cost only 30,000 rupees to make. According to officials, similar drones were used in the Russia-Ukraine war. In August this year, the National Aerospace Laboratories (NAL) launched powerful 'indigenous' kamikaze drones. These are capable of flying up to 1,000 kilometers.
Looking back in the past, kamikaze suicide missions were first seen at the end of the Second World War. At that time, pilots of the weak Japanese Air Force crashed their fighter planes into planes and ships of other countries.
India preparing to set up an entry drone unit
Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Sunday that India will soon set up an anti-drone unit to secure its borders, as the "threat" from UAVs is going to become more serious in the coming days. He said that the initial results of the "laser-equipped anti-drone gun-mounted" system have been encouraging. This has increased the ability to shoot down and detect drones along the India-Pakistan border in Punjab from 3 percent to 55 percent. Shah said that the drone threat is going to become more serious in the coming days... We are working closely with the DRDO to deal with it.
