The Sudarshan Chakra Mission envisions India developing a fully indigenous multi-layered air defence system by 2035. This shield aims to protect both strategic military assets and civilian infrastructure from aerial threats, including drones, missiles, and fighter jets. The system will integrate radar networks, AI-driven sensors, missile interceptors, and directed energy weapons, ensuring nationwide coverage. The initiative underscores India’s focus on self-reliance in defence technology, reducing dependence on foreign suppliers, enhancing deterrence against regional adversaries, and safeguarding civilian and critical infrastructure across the country.
