1. Chennai-based Big Bang Boom Solutions will deliver its Anti-Drone Defence System (ADDS) to the Indian Air Force (IAF) from August, Gaurav Sharma, chief government relationship officer of the defence startup firm told Janes .

Speaking at the East Tech 2022 event in Kolkata on 8 July, Sharma said the company received a request for proposal (RFP) in June 2022 to provide an undisclosed number of ADDS units to the IA

The complete ADDS system is portable and can be operated by a single person. The system utilises radar detection, electro-optic/infrared (EO/IR) tracking, and passive radio frequency (RF) scanning features to provide countermeasures against rogue unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), Big Bang Boom Solutions sai

The system, which has an upmast weight of 25 kg, has a detection range of up to 20 km and provides an effective jamming range of 15–16 km, Sharma said. The system has a wide frequency detection band (400 Mhz – 6 Ghz), artifical intelligence (AI)-enabled pattern recognition, and can provide jamming solutions in less than five seconds after the UAV has entered the jamming rang

The ADDS is equipped with day and night cameras, which can capture a video and image of the UAV up to 3 km. The system also has an integrated video processing algorithm, which can visually identify and confirm the presence of a UAV, and imitate tracking. The data fusion and command centre integrates data from sensors' embedded algorithms for UAV detection and classificatiation.

2. Hyderabad-based Zen Technologies has delivered two units of its counter-unmanned aerial system (C-UAS) to the Indian Air Force (IAF), Abdul Imran, subject matter expert on anti-drone systems at Zen Technologies told Janes at East Tech 2022, held in Kolkata by the Indian Army's Eastern Command on 7 and 8 July.

The IAF has placed an order for 25 units of Zen's C-UAS, Imran said, adding that the rest of the 23 units will be delivered by October 2022.

Zen Technologies secured a INR1.55 billion (USD19.5 million) order from the IAF for its C-UAS – named Zen anti-drone system (ZADS) – in September 2021.

The ZADS units, which are being delivered to the IAF, have a 5 km range for detection, a 4 km range for jamming, and are capable of operating at a maximum altitude of 5,000 m, Imran said.

ZADS is able to match and identify unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with the help of an inbuilt library, which can be regularly upgraded, he said.

Zen Technologies is pursuing talks with the Indian Army to establish a deal for ZADS, Imran noted.

ZADS is not a manportable system at present, Ali Adil Mahmood, vice-president of projects at Zen Technologies, told Janes at East Tech 2022.

“The systems can be mounted on a moving vehicle, but have to be static when employed,” Mahmood said.

Grene Robotics unveils autonomous anti-drone system

Updated - September 04, 2023 at 09:18 AM. | Hyderabad

“The integration of 12 proprietary technologies in a comprehensive network sets Indrajaal apart as the world’s most advanced full-spectrum drone security system”

From weddings to festivals and from agriculture to surveillance, the usage of drones has become a common feature. Drones that come from across the border pose a bigger challenge.

As useful as they are in getting otherwise impossible camera angles, drones have become a security challenge as thousands of drones — small and big — swarm the skies.

With a view to providing a comprehensive security cover, Hyderabad-based Grene Robotics has demonstrated an autonomous anti-drone system that can spot, track, and neutralise rogue drones.


The system has the ability to detect, identify, classify, track, and swiftly neutralize threats in real time, making it a formidable force in the field.


Christened Indrajaal, the system provides 360-degree protection, covering an area of up to 4,000 sq km, Kiran Raju, Founder & CEO, Grene Robotics Grene Robotics, said.

The Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS) can identify, track and neutralise micro, mini, small, large, and extra-large drone classifications.

The country’s defence forces have detected several attempts to drop weapons, money, and narcotics into the country.

Indrajaal was built on a LEGO block-like combination mechanism of 12 artificial intelligence-based technology layers.

A Grene Robotics executive said there has been a steady increase in drone-based weapon deliveries, with 76 cases reported in 2020, 109 in 2021, 266 in 2022, and approximately 200 cases in 2023 alone.

“This concerning upsurge emphasises the urgent need for heightened vigilance and the implementation of effective countermeasures to safeguard national security,” it said.

The system comprises greneOS (Resource Planning engine), HiveMind (AI Computer that can plan and execute missions), and DefOS (Unified Command and Control Engine);

DefOS (Unified Command and Control Engine), Hithreat AI Computer that can plan and execute missions, Zombee Drone (autonomous drones that can kill threats), and and SkyCop Drone that can watch threats.

“The integration of 12 proprietary technologies in a comprehensive network sets Indrajaal apart as the world’s most advanced full-spectrum drone security system,” Wg Cdr MVN Sai (Retd), Director Grene Robotics & Co-Founder, Indrajaal, said.
