Solar Explosives Slashes Pinaka MkII Rocket Production Time from 55 Days to 14 Days, Ensuring Rapid Supply to Indian Army

In a significant boost to India's defence capabilities, Solar Explosives, a leading player in the munitions industry, has announced a remarkable increase in the production rate of Pinaka MkII rockets.

The company has successfully reduced the manufacturing time for each Pinaka MkII unit from 50-55 days to just 14-15 days, demonstrating a major leap in efficiency.

This accelerated production timeline for the Pinaka MkII, compared to the older MkI variant, highlights Solar Explosives' commitment to innovation and operational excellence. The Pinaka, a multi-barrel rocket launcher system, has been instrumental in strengthening India's artillery capabilities, offering extended range and precision in battlefield scenarios.

Solar Industrial Explosives officials have stated that this development aligns with the Indian Army's drive to modernize its arsenal with more agile and efficient systems. The faster production process not only enables quicker deployment of these crucial assets but also potentially reduces costs and increases their availability to the armed forces.

Furthermore, Solar Explosives is looking forward to new contracts from the Indian Army, particularly for the Guided Pinaka. This variant, developed by the DRDO and recently cleared for production, promises even greater accuracy and effectiveness. The Guided Pinaka integrates advanced navigation systems, enhancing its capability to strike targets with pinpoint precision, a critical requirement in modern warfare where minimizing collateral damage is paramount.

This increased production rate for the Pinaka MkII is a significant development for India's defence industry. It ensures that the Indian Army can be supplied with these vital munitions more rapidly, enhancing its operational readiness and firepower. The company's focus on innovation and efficiency also bodes well for future developments in India's defence manufacturing sector.

Four to five mega factories must be set up in different locations of the country to produce over 10,000-20,000 Pinakas a year, with a sanctioned holding of over 100,000. In case of crises, production in factories can be scaled up ten times.
