For the first time ever, the Indian Army demonstrated combat drones that can swarm enemy forces and overwhelm their defences. Over 15 such swarm drones of the army flew for the first time in public at the Army Day parade at Delhi's Cariappa Ground on Friday, January 15. These drones can penetrate up to 50 km behind enemy lines and create havoc, while drone operators can stay hidden safely, the presenter at the parade said.
