Asked to respond to significant drone threats during Operation Sindoor, the young team at BBBS were able to accelerate and rapidly deliver systems to support the Indian Army and Airforce. During heightened tensions at the border, BBBS’ Vajra systems exceeded expectations by neutralizing multiple foreign-origin drones demonstrating its operational reliability and strategic value.

Developed under the Ministry of Defence‘s iDEX Challenge, the Vajra Sentinel System represents a major step forward in India‘s journey toward defence self-reliance.

Praveen Dwarakanath, CEO of BBBS, “This milestone is more than a product delivery – it is a testament to India‘s growing capability to develop and deploy state-of-the-art defence systems without foreign dependence. By investing in indigenous solutions like the Vajra Sentinel, India significantly reduces its reliance on imported technologies, which are often expensive, difficult to customize, and restricted by geopolitical constraints.”
