Paras Defence and Space Technologies has entered into a significant technology transfer agreement with India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) to manufacture Driver Night Sight systems for the T-90 tank. This collaboration aims to enhance the mobility and operational safety of tank crews by accelerating the deployment of advanced night vision technologies.
While specifics regarding the financial aspects and technical parameters of the agreement remain undisclosed, this deal reflects Paras Defence’s expanding role in providing high-reliability defense technologies to the Indian armed forces. The company has previously received contracts involving optronic systems for submarines and anti-drone applications, which further demonstrates its growing influence in the defense sector.
The T-90 tank, originally developed in Russia, serves as a pivotal component of India’s armored capabilities since its introduction in the late 1990s. Renowned for its durable armor, a powerful 125mm smoothbore gun, and sophisticated fire-control systems, the T-90 has been instrumental in bolstering India’s defensive posture. Beyond its utility in India, various versions of the T-90 are operational in numerous countries, including Russia, Algeria, and Azerbaijan, where it has demonstrated remarkable resilience across diverse terrains and combat scenarios.
