Hensoldt is presenting its next-generation airborne sensor solutions tailored for the requirements of the Indian armed forces at the ongoing airshow. Hensoldt is eyeing Indian requirements related to advanced AESA Radar and ISR Systems, Electronic Warfare & Self-Protection Systems, Electro-Optical & Infrared (EO/IR) Solutions and AI-Powered Data Fusion & Multi-Sensor Integration.
India is developing several airborne ISR systems for superior airborne surveillance, early warning, and target tracking for fighter aircraft, UAVs. India is also seeking to enhance combat aircraft survivability with missile warning systems, radar warning receivers, and electronic countermeasures. Hensoldt states that it is dedicated not only to supplying technology to India but also to developing localized solutions, transferring critical technologies, and fostering strategic industrial partnerships to drive India's defence self-sufficiency.
India’s defence modernisation is now more than acquiring world-class systems; it also involves developing local expertise, production capabilities, and long-term self-reliance. Hensoldt is actively collaborating with Indian defence manufacturers, research institutions, and the armed forces to establish localized production and system integration for advanced sensor technologies; enhance indigenous capabilities in airborne surveillance and situational awareness solutions and foster technology transfer and co-development partnerships to create next-generation airborne sensor systems in India.
As a trusted partner of the German government, Hensoldt is at the forefront of expanding Indo-German defence ties. Germany’s increasing engagement in the Indo-Pacific, coupled with India’s growing demand for advanced defence electronics, presents a unique opportunity for the company to deepen technology collaboration and operational cooperation.
