DroneAcharya Aerial Innovations Limited, a frontrunner in drone technology solutions, has been awarded a significant contract to furnish the Indian Army's new Drone Lab in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) with essential IT hardware. This development, announced via a company regulatory filing, underscores India's commitment to bolstering its unmanned aerial capabilities.
The contract mandates DroneAcharya to supply core IT infrastructure components, including CPUs, monitors, keyboards, and mice. These assets will form the backbone of the Drone Lab, enabling its smooth operation.
