The VCOAS was briefed about the Vehicle Mounted Counter Storm Drone System, a state-of-the-art weapon system currently under development by the Army Air Defence. This advanced system is designed to combat the increasing threat of drone warfare, with a focus on intercepting and neutralising drone swarms using precision-guided munitions. The system’s sophisticated sensors, including radar and day-night cameras, provide enhanced operational capability for the armed forces, addressing modern challenges in security and defence, a statement from the Army spokesperson stated.
