The Ministry of Defence has given initial approval to military modernisation proposals worth Rs 54,000 crore. Key upgrades include the Army’s BrahMos missile regiments, enhancing strike range to 450 km, and the acquisition of six Netra AEW&C aircraft for the Air Force. Additionally, T-90 tank engines will be upgraded, and the Navy will receive advanced torpedoes and anti-aircraft missiles. These initiatives aim to strengthen India’s defense capabilities and address procurement delays. The final contracts will be negotiated in the coming years as part of ongoing modernization efforts.
