NewSpace Joins Forces with Forge for High-Altitude Drone Challenge


New Space Research & Technologies (NRT), a rapidly expanding leader in the Indian aerospace and defence sector, has announced a strategic partnership with Forge for the O.C-9.0 Challenge – High Altitude Pseudo-Satellite (HAPS) MK1. This collaboration highlights NRT's dedication to spearheading innovation in Next-Generation Missions and Technologies (NGM&T) within the global aerospace landscape.

NRT is renowned for its cutting-edge work in Manned-Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T). This sophisticated technology seamlessly integrates crewed fighter aircraft with fleets of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and uncrewed combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs). The result is a formidable force multiplier, expanding the operational reach and efficiency of military air assets.

The company's core strengths also include developing High Altitude Pseudo-Satellites (HAPS). These specialized UAVs are engineered to fly at stratospheric altitudes between 5km and 20km. Their remarkable endurance, exceeding three months in some cases, transforms them into powerful platforms for long-term Earth observation missions and robust communication networks.

NRT leverages its advanced UAVs for a diverse array of military and civilian applications. These include:
  • Surveillance and reconnaissance
  • Secure data and voice communication
  • Search and rescue operations
  • Location and asset tracking
  • Environmental and climate monitoring
  • Precision agriculture
The O.C-9.0 Challenge – HAPS MK1 likely centers around the development or demonstration of a new, highly capable HAPS platform. By teaming up with Forge, NRT injects its proven HAPS expertise into this challenge. The partnership underscores the company's ambition to stay at the forefront of this rapidly evolving aerial technology.

India's aerospace industry is experiencing a surge in innovation, and NRT's role in this partnership exemplifies the nation's growing prominence in the field. The outcome of the O.C 9.0 Challenge could have far-reaching implications for the future of defense, communication, and scientific exploration.
 
These are very important ISR systems required by Indian Armed Forces to stop incursions, invasions, etc like Yangtze where the criminal chinese ccp and its pla tried to overwhelm Indian troops with surprise large scale attack.
Way to go!!!
