The Kadet Defence Systems, along with the Defence Research Development Organisation (DRDO), has achieved a significant milestone with the indigenous development of India's first suicide drone, 'Loitering Aerial Munitions (LAM)'.
Kadet has signed a contract to deliver over 50 systems by the end of the year to meet the future requirements of the operational needs of the Indian armed forces.
What distinguishes Kadet's LAMs apart is their adaptability to various terrains, including deserts, plains, and high-altitude environments, boasting a remarkable launch altitude capability of over 5,000 meters.
The LAM Systems encompass a diverse array of cutting-edge technologies, including Canister Aerial Loitering Munition (CALM), Combat UAVs with stand-off capabilities for munition release, Tactical vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) UAVs, and a versatile mix of systems capable of swarming and manned-unmanned teaming operations.
With the market size of LAMs in India estimated to be around INR 150 Billion ($1.79 billion), Kadet stands poised to make a substantial impact in the defense industry.
