India is expanding its defence export ambitions by focusing on larger platforms, a move that follows the commercial success of BrahMos missiles and artillery systems.
The government has announced plans to invest in the development of bigger platforms such as frigates, submarines, and advanced aircraft that can be tailored for foreign markets.
Officials say the new platforms will incorporate cutting‑edge technology and will be designed to meet the specific requirements of overseas buyers, thereby diversifying India’s defence export portfolio.
This initiative is part of a broader strategy to position India as a key player in the global defence market and to secure long‑term contracts with allied nations.
