India has achieved another milestone in defense research. DRDO has successfully tested a sensor that protects a command center. This test took place at the Defense Research and Development Establishment (DRDE) laboratory in Gwalior. DRDE scientists demonstrated this within the stipulated timeframe. It will provide protection against chemical threats in adverse weather conditions.

Scientists successfully tested

In the country's defense sector, the launch of the Agni Prime missile from a rail launcher created history. Scientists at the Gwalior-based Research and Development Establishment have successfully tested a sensor that protects the missile and the launcher's control command center from chemical warfare reagents. The Gwalior-based DRDE team worked on these sensors and detectors over several months. During testing, a special focus was placed on ensuring complete protection against chemical threats in all weather conditions and adverse conditions.

DRDO Gwalior, Asia's first laboratory
DRDE scientists have also demonstrated this within the stipulated timeframe. These sensors are so capable and highly efficient that they can even detect a contaminated individual entering the command center. This is done to ensure the command center remains secure, both inside and out. This command center is completely NBC protected. It should be noted that DRDO Gwalior is the first laboratory in Asia and the second in the world to comply with ISO IEC 17025:2017 standards in the field of NBC.
