BEL’s Strong Record in Defence
BEL, a Navratna Defence Public Sector Undertaking, has been working with the Indian Armed Forces for many years. It makes radar systems, missiles, and other electronic products that help soldiers and sailors in many ways. The company has been trusted by the Indian Navy, Army, and Air Force for a long time.
Cochin Shipyard Limited, another major defence partner, builds ships and submarines for the Indian Navy. Working together, BEL and Cochin Shipyard help make sure India gets more locally made defence products instead of buying from other countries. This supports the Indian government’s “Make in India” plan for defence production.
Focus on Self-Reliance a
With this new order BEL will not only earn revenue but also continue to create local jobs and promote innovation in defence technology. Experts say such projects will help India reduce its import dependence and build more advanced systems at home. BEL’s engineers and scientists are already working on new upgrades that can make these systems even more powerful in the future.
