India's first batch of indigenous suicide drones with reusable technology, Nagastra-1, has been delivered successfully to the Indian Army, as reported by The Economic Times.According to a defense official, at least 120 munitions, which will be deployed along the Pakistan and China borders, have been provided.In a kamikaze mode, Nagastra-1 can neutralize any enemy menace including training camps, launch pads, and infiltrators, through GPS-enabled precision strikes with an accuracy of 2 meters, reported ANI.Moreover, its electric propulsion system provides a low acoustic signature, making it virtually undetectable by the enemy at altitudes above 200 meters, according to defense officials.The 9-kg man-portable fixed-wing electric UAV boasts an impressive 30- to 60-minute endurance. It has a man-in-loop range of 15 km and an autonomous mode range of 30 km.Meanwhile, an advanced version, Nagastra–2, capable of carrying a 2.2 kg warhead with an impressive range of 30km, has yet to be launched.

According to a defense official, at least 120 munitions, which will be deployed along the Pakistan and China borders, have been provided.
In a
kamikaze mode, Nagastra-1 can neutralize any enemy menace including training camps, launch pads, and infiltrators, through
GPS-enabled precision strikes with an accuracy of 2 meters, reported ANI.
