Indian Army Proposes Dedicated Rocket-Missile Force to Enhance Long-Range Strike Capability

Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi has proposed establishing a dedicated rocket-missile force to enhance long-range strike capabilities amid security challenges from Pakistan and China. This specialised unit would unify control over rockets and missiles, enabling precise, long-distance strikes while keeping troops safer. Drawing on lessons from countries like Iran and recent operations such as Operation Sindoor, the force aims to integrate advanced guided weaponry under a single command to address evolving warfare demands.
