New Delhi : The Defence Acquisition Council (DAC) chaired by Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman met here on September 18, 2018, and accorded approval for the procurement of equipment for the Defence Forces valued at over Rs 9,100 crore.

Pursuing the goal of indigenisation and self-reliance, the DAC approved procurement of two Regiments of Akash Missile Systems under ‘Buy (Indian)’ category from M/s BDL. The Missile to be procured is an upgraded version of the previously inducted Akash missiles and will include seeker technology, possess 360 degree coverage, and will be of compact configuration with reduced signature. The upgraded Akash Weapon System is operationally critical equipment which will provide protection to vital assets, according to a PIB release.

The DAC also accorded approval for progressing Design and Development of Individual Under Water Breathing Apparatus (IUWBA) for T 90 Tanks. Developed by DRDO Lab DEBEL ( Defence Bioengineering and Electromedical Laboratory), the IUWBA is used by the crew of Tanks as a safety gear and required by them for emergency escape when negotiating water obstacles while deep fording.

The DAC also accorded approval for Design and Development of Test Equipment for Guided Weapons System of T 90 Tank. The equipment is being developed by DRDO and will give an indigenous solution to the Test Equipment used for checking the Guided Weapon System of Tank T 90. The equipment, earlier procured from foreign OEMs, has been developed indigenously and is in pursuit of the Government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative.

  1. Excellent blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?

    I’m planning to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
    Would you suggest starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there
    that I’m totally confused .. Any tips? Bless you!

  2. I do not know whether it’s just me or if everyone else encountering issues with your website.
    It appears like some of the text in your posts are running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if
    this is happening to them as well? This may be a issue
    with my internet browser because I’ve had this happen previously.
    Appreciate it
