Overview

• Saksham is a modular command-and-control system that operates on the Army Data Network to generate a recognised UAS picture in real time.
• It is designed to secure the Tactical Battlefield Space, including the Air Littoral up to 3,000 metres, by detecting, tracking, identifying and neutralising hostile drones.
• The grid integrates CUAS sensors and soft- and hard-kill effectors, provides automated decision support and 3D visualisation, and uses AI for predictive analysis.
• Approved under the Fast Track Procurement route, the system is slated for rollout across field formations within the next year, according to the Army.
• Developed with Bharat Electronics Limited in Ghaziabad, the fully indigenous system links with the Akashteer air defence network and aligns with the Army’s Decade of Transformation.
