IAF plans to deploy heavy-lift airship at 30,000 ft for border surveillance
The Indian Air Force is developing a new unmanned airship for long-endurance surveillance, capable of operating at high altitudes with a significant payload. This multi-utility platform, potentially using hydrogen, will enhance border monitoring, detect incursions and drone threats, and could even launch projectiles and drones. The initiative aims to boost India's intelligence capabilities with substantial indigenous content.
