DRDO Partners With Apollo Micro Systems
- The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has further strengthened India’s defence manufacturing ecosystem by deepening its partnership with Hyderabad-based Apollo Micro Systems Ltd.
- In a recent development, announced on 29 August 2025, DRDO officially designated Apollo Micro Systems as the production agency for the Multi-Influence Ground Mine – Vighana, a cutting-edge naval mine designed to enhance India’s maritime security.
- Alongside this, DRDO has also signed a transfer of technology (ToT) agreement with the company for the Omni-Directional multi-EFP (Explosively Formed Penetrator) warhead, a highly sophisticated weapon subsystem engineered for maximum effectiveness against naval targets.
- Apollo Micro Systems, already recognised for its expertise in high-end electronics, mission-critical systems, and precision-engineered solutions for India’s defence and aerospace sectors, will now be responsible for translating DRDO’s lab-scale innovation into a secure, battle-ready weapon system.
BHEL To Manufacture Radar Domes
- Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), one of India’s largest engineering and manufacturing public sector enterprises, has taken a significant step toward strengthening the nation’s defence capabilities by entering into a technology transfer licence agreement with the Defence Metallurgical Research Laboratory (DMRL), Hyderabad, a premier facility of the DRDO.
- The partnership focuses on the manufacturing of radar domes, also referred to as Radomes, which are critical aerospace components used to protect sensitive seeker-based sensors in missile systems.
- These domes not only serve as a physical shield against adverse environmental conditions but also play a vital role in ensuring that electromagnetic signals and radar waves can pass through without distortion, allowing missile seekers to function with high accuracy and reliability.
- Under the agreement, DMRL has transferred to BHEL the advanced technology required for producing fused silica-based Radomes using cold isostatic pressing (CIP) and sintering techniques.
- Fused silica is a highly specialised material known for its exceptional thermal stability, very low dielectric loss, and superior transparency to electromagnetic waves over a wide frequency range.
