Summary

The Department of Defence Production (DDP) focuses on major indigenised systems tailored for tank platforms, including sub-structures like the SWIVEL BODY, load-bearing sheet metal elements with high strength and lightweight design, and optical sight systems designed for precise target selection and tracking. Additionally, the department addresses the threat posed by submarines through a comprehensive countermeasure system comprising an electrical TD igniter and hermetically sealed aircraft casings that protect critical PCBs. Furthermore, the manufacturing infrastructure supports the development and production of heavy-duty anti-torpedo weaponry, with TD ignition units capable of firing the Invar missiles in a tank. These efforts are aimed at ensuring significant self-reliance in design, development, and production of Defense Equipment and Platforms.
