India Advances Indigenous Missile Systems and Expands Defence Exports Post Operation Sindoor
India's defence sector has advanced significantly with indigenous missile systems like BrahMos and Agni-V, enhancing strategic deterrence and modern warfare capabilities. Operation Sindoor in 2025 demonstrated BrahMos missiles' precision and radar evasion, boosting global demand and export prospects, especially in Southeast Asia. BrahMos Aerospace is expanding production and developing the next-generation BrahMos-NG missile, expected by 2027-28. India's defence exports have grown rapidly, reflecting a shift toward self-reliance and increased international presence in military technology.
