Lucknow: India is getting new forces from the ongoing Defense Expo in Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh. One of these is a robot that is available to the Indian Air Force, which can easily defuse a 1000 kg bomb. After the kind of situation that happened at the time of the Balakot airstrikes in February 2019, the need for such robots became more.
After the Indian Air Force attack, when the Pakistani Air Force threw bombs in India in response, there were many difficulties. The bombs that Pakistan had thrown were not torn, now in such circumstances these robots will help India. Airforce can buy them soon. According to the sources, the decision to include this robot in the Indian Airforce has not been fully decided yet. But many trials have been done on behalf of the Airforce. It has been produced by the Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO), which has been exhibited at the ongoing Defense Expo in Lucknow.
Speaking on this robot, DRDO scientist Alok Mukherjee has said that, ‘We have conducted many trials of this robot with the Indian Air Force, a practice of bomb defusing many locations has also been done’. These robots will be controlled through a mobile center, that is, human capability will not be required for bomb diffuses.
