The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) of India has successfully conducted development trials of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Launched Precision Guided Missile (ULPGM)-V3, showcasing its capabilities in both Air-to-Ground and Air-to-Air combat modes. The trials, held at the DRDO test range near Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh, involved an integrated Ground Control System (GCS) that employs automated technologies for missile readiness and launch operations. This missile system is integrated on UAVs developed by Newspace Research and Technologies, based in Bengaluru. The development and production of the ULPGM missile involved partnerships with Bharat Dynamics Limited and Adani Defence Systems & Technologies Limited, highlighting a collaborative effort within India's defense sector. The missile was developed by the Research Centre Imarat, along with contributions from various DRDO facilities, ensuring that the entire production process utilized the Indian defense ecosystem, including micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). The successful trials confirm a fully mature domestic supply chain capable of immediate serial mass production. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh praised the achievement, calling it a strategic milestone towards achieving self-reliance in defense.
