NEW DELHI: Optiemus Unmanned Systems (OUS), a subsidiary of Optiemus Infracom Limited, has launched four cutting-edge drones tailored for defence, surveillance, and reconnaissance operations. Unveiled at the Milipol India Exhibition 2025, these drones are designed to operate in GNSS-denied and electronic warfare (EW) environments, with high-altitude functionality and extended endurance.

All drones can be equipped with optical fiber cable (OFC) navigation, enhancing resilience against electronic interference.

Further strengthening its commitment to the Make in India initiative, OUS has partnered with Taiwan-based Avix Technology to co-develop and manufacture high-performance camera systems, gimbals, and drone components domestically. This collaboration aims to build a robust local defence manufacturing ecosystem.

Ashok Gupta, Executive Chairman of Optiemus Group, emphasized that these innovations align with India’s defence modernization goals. “We’re delivering high-performance, indigenously developed aerial systems for strategic and tactical applications,” he said.

Avix CEO Cooper Chang echoed the sentiment, stating, “Together, we are laying the foundation for a sustainable, innovation-driven drone manufacturing hub in India.”

OUS is also collaborating with multiple Indian component suppliers, reinforcing the growth of a local defence tech ecosystem.
