India has emerged as a leader in long-range radar development, surpassing Europe and effectively competing with China in defense technology. The DRDO’s innovations, like the Swordfish Long Range Tracking Radar and the Virupaksha radar, demonstrate India’s capabilities in tracking and intercepting threats, especially against hostile neighbors. Unlike Europe’s focus on gradual upgrades and NATO interoperability, India’s radar systems are tailored for diverse, high- threat environments, emphasizing indigenous design and scalability. This self-reliance enhances India’s strategic posture, enabling it to challenge China’s surveillance capabilities while positioning itself as a competitive player in the global defense market.
