Armanetics Demonstrates Indigenous ARMANET Swarm Drone System to Indian Army

ARMANET is not simply a new drone airframe. It is a mission operating and swarm-coordination platform designed to allow a single operator to command multiple unmanned aerial vehicles as an integrated formation rather than controlling each aircraft separately. Armanetics says the system has undergone months of development and field testing before the recent Army demonstration.

Garuda Aerospace Deploys Sanjeevani Logistics Drones for Nepal Flood Relief

The Sanjeevani drones being used in Nepal can carry payloads of up to 25 kg, allowing relief teams to move meaningful quantities of critical supplies without waiting for damaged roads or bridges to be restored.
