India is preparing its attack helicopters for a new role in modern warfare. Firstpost brings you the details of how the Indian Air Force is gearing up to equip its helicopters with specialised micro-missiles, AI-powered target identification systems, radio-frequency and GPS jammers, and advanced fragmentation warheads to counter the growing drone threat. The proposal follows discussions at the IAF-SIDM seminar, SANKALP 2026, and comes as the IAF sharpens its counter-drone capabilities through Exercise Rotor Clapp-III in Rajasthan.
