"We consider the joint development and production of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as one of the promising areas of Russian-Indian technological partnership," Rosoboronexport told Sputnik India in an exclusive interview.

A key competitive advantage of Russian UAVs offered for export is that their technical development is based on real combat experience in high-intensity conflicts, including operations in environments with modern air defenсe countermeasures, the company noted.

It is also worth noting the high level of openness from the Russian side in terms of technological cooperation in the UAV sector, it added.
