In an era where unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and loitering munitions pose increasing threats to both military and civilian infrastructures, Solar Group has announced a significant advancement in defense technology with the successful test firing of guided micro-missiles under its ‘Bhargavastra’ counter-drone system. This development marks a pivotal moment in India’s indigenous defense capabilities, aiming to neutralize these aerial threats effectively and economically.

The ‘Bhargavastra’ counter-drone system’s micro-missiles are entirely indigenously designed and developed by Solar Group. These micro-missiles aim to deliver a cost-effective hard-kill solution for neutralizing enemy unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). With affordability as a key feature, the micro-missiles promise to enhance the ability of the armed forces to tackle UAV threats efficiently and economically.

Multi-Layered Counter-Drone System

The ‘Bhargavastra’ system incorporates a multi-layered approach to counter UAVs, combining both hard-kill and soft-kill technologies:

  • Hard-Kill Layer: Utilizes guided micro-missiles to physically destroy UAVs, ensuring a definitive neutralization of threats.
  • Soft-Kill Layer: Features electronic warfare capabilities designed to disrupt and disable enemy UAVs through non-kinetic means. This layer enhances the system’s versatility and effectiveness.

The integration of these complementary layers makes ‘Bhargavastra’ a comprehensive solution for countering diverse UAV threats, from small drones to larger loitering munitions.

Solar Group’s ‘Bhargavastra’ is also designed to seamlessly integrate with the existing network-centric warfare infrastructure of the armed forces. This capability allows the system to operate as part of a broader, interconnected defense ecosystem, enhancing situational awareness and real-time response to UAV threats.

As UAVs become an increasingly prominent tool in modern warfare, both for reconnaissance and as weaponized platforms, the need for effective counter-drone systems has grown significantly. Solar Group’s ‘Bhargavastra’ aims to fill this critical gap by offering a robust and adaptable solution capable of addressing a wide range of UAV threats.
