Looks like a toy, the soundproof nano drone is the Black Hornet and is laced with two cameras helping the Indian Army to keep watch on the movement of the anti-national elements.
"Having access into the concrete infrastructure, Black Hornet is probably used to locate the hidden terrorists without making noise," said an officer.
Meanwhile, the Indian Army has also deployed Tata Razak on the borders to keep an eye on the movement of terrorists hiding in Pakistan.
"Tata Razak is a suitable system to keep an eye on the enemy as it can detect human movement up to 18 kilometres and vehicle movement up to 35 kilometres," he said.
Being connected to the programming, Tata Razak can instantly pass all the information to the computer, adding, "The way Pakistan is trying to infiltrate Jammu and Kashmir, Tata Razak plays the role of a sentinel along the boundaries."
The officer, however, said that the Army has also added manufactured-in-Force Motors, Indian-made, light strike vehicles to its fleet.
"The four-seated Light Strike Vehicle has four cylinders and four-stroke discharge engine," said the officer.
The gadget, however, is equipped with ballistic protection and a night vision system with weapons installed on it.
Along with this, the Indian Army has also included the Mountain Off-Road Vehicle in its fleet, having a payload capacity of 470 kg, and it can be used for delivering weapons and supplies, quick deployment of small contingents, and casualty evacuation.
Moreover, the Indian Army has also added an armoured, bulletproof light specialist vehicle to its fleet being used in border belts and interior areas, adding, he said, "All Train Vehicles have also been included in the fleet for use in the geographical conditions of Jammu and Kashmir."
