BDL gets Buy Indian contract

 

 

The Defence Acquisition Council (DAC) has approved Rs.9,100 crore worth of equipment procurement for the Defence Forces.

Pursuing the goal of indigenisation and self-reliance, the DAC approved procurement of two Regiments of Akash Missile Systems under ‘Buy Indian’ category from Bharat Dynamics Ltd (BDL).

The Missile to be procured is an upgraded version of the previously inducted Akash missiles and will include seeker technology, possess 360-degree coverage and will be of compact configuration with reduced signature.

The upgraded Akash Weapon System is operationally critical equipment which will provide protection to vital assets.

The DAC also approved for progressing Design and Development of Individual Under Water Breathing Apparatus (IUWBA) for T 90 Tanks.

Developed by Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) Lab DEBEL, the IUWBA is used by the crew of Tanks as a safety gear and is required by the Tank crew for emergency escape when negotiating water obstacles while deep fording.

The DAC also approved for Design and Development of Test Equipment for Guided Weapons System of T 90 Tank.

The equipment is being developed by DRDO and will give an indigenous solution to the Test Equipment used for checking the Guided Weapon System of Tank T 90.

The equipment earlier procured from foreign OEMs, has been developed indigenously and is in pursuit of the Government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative.

Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman chaired the DAC approval meeting on 18 Sept 2018. fiinews.com
