DRDO's Anti-Drone System Haunts Pakistan

Pakistan is struggling to breach India's advanced 'Drone, Detect, Deter, and Destroy' (D4) system, developed by the Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO). This indigenous technology, comparable to Israel's Iron Dome, effectively neutralizes aerial threats, particularly from Turkish drones used by Pakistan along the western border. The D4 system integrates multiple sensors for detection and identification, utilizing radar, radio frequency, and electro-optic systems. It employs soft kill methods like jamming and GPS spoofing, with hard kill options involving high-energy lasers if necessary. General Anil Chauhan, Chief of Defence Staff, highlighted the transformative role of drones in modern warfare, noting their cost-effectiveness in targeting and assessing enemy capabilities. Manufactured under India's 'Make in India' initiative, the D4 system is operational across all military branches and is also deployed for security at major national events, reflecting its efficacy and strategic importance. sources

India's Strategy for Targeting Pakistan's Air Force Assets

NEW DELHI: In a decisive response to escalating drone and missile attacks from Pakistan, the Indian Air Force targeted key Pakistan Air Force bases at Rafiqui, Murid, and Chaklala early this morning.

The attacks were designed to disrupt Pakistan's aerial capabilities, particularly its reconnaissance and long-range strike operations, which have intensified in recent days. The Nur Khan airbase, crucial for coordinating recent cross-border assaults, along with Rafiqui and Murid, were specifically chosen due to their strategic importance in Pakistan's military operations.
