IG Drones secures India’s first patent for defence drone simulator, fulfilling PM Modi’s vision of Aatmanirbhar Bharat

In a historic stride towards India's technological sovereignty and defence self-reliance, IG Drones has been granted the patent for the nation’s first indigenous defence drone simulator—a monumental achievement in India's march towards Aatmanirbhar Bharat.

Originally unveiled by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the Defence Expo 2022, this simulator now stands as a beacon of India’s homegrown defence excellence—a proud symbol of Bharatiya innovation, capability, and resolve.

Designed, developed, and manufactured entirely on Indian soil, this next-generation simulator provides high-fidelity, realistic training for the Indian Army, Navy, Air Force, and paramilitary forces—empowering our soldiers to master combat drone operations in simulated high-risk environments, including GPS-denied zones and multi-drone missions.

Built with state-of-the-art AI, physics-based engines, and real-time terrain dynamics, the simulator eliminates dependence on foreign systems, offering a secure, cost-effective, and fully Indian alternative. This isn’t just a product—it is a strategic force multiplier that strengthens the hands of our warriors and honours the spirit of ‘Jai Jawan, Jai Vigyan’.
