In a breakthrough for indigenous defence innovation, Pune-based Quantum Tech FPV has delivered its first fiber-optic FPV (First-Person View) drone to the Indian Army. This cutting-edge drone offers ultra-low latency video transmission via fiber optics, enabling real-time decision-making on the battlefield. Equipped with enhanced anti-jamming capabilities, the drone is ideal for precision operations, surveillance missions, and tactical reconnaissance in hostile terrains.
The delivery marks a significant advancement in India’s commitment to self-reliant defence production under the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative. Unlike traditional radio-frequency drones, this model ensures greater security against cyber and signal interference, which is crucial for modern warfare. With its indigenous design and advanced specs, the drone boosts India’s preparedness in asymmetric and hybrid warfare scenarios.
Officials believe this is just the beginning of a wider drone integration strategy across Indian defence forces. The Army is expected to test its deployment in real-world scenarios across northern sectors soon.
