Indian Army’s Lethal Weapon: PALM 400

It is called the PALM 400 — acronym for ‘precision attack loitering munition’ — and is designed to fly over armoured vehicle concentrations, or areas where they are expected. When the armoured vehicles arrive in this ‘kill zone’, each PALM 400 picks out its target and fires an armour-penetrating projectile, penetrating it from the top […]

The lack of armed drones has dogged the Indian army for a long time.

India testing battle-winning weapons from recent wars

The PALM 400 RPV is launched from a canister and can loiter (remain on station) over a kill zone for up to 120 minutes flying at 3,000-4,000 feet above the ground. It flies at 50-140 knots (90-260 kilometres per hour), giving it a range of over 100 km.
In Quest For Inducting Cutting-Edge ‘Drones’, Indian Army To Start Testing Loitering Munitions

Indian Army is set to test loitering munitions at Pokhran testing range, as part of a wider push by the Army to operationalise advanced AI-based unmanned technologies in the forces.

If successful, these drones could prove to be a game-changer in India‘s quest for induction of advanced cutting edge technology
The Indian army has recently tested the prototype version of the PALM-400 drones successfully.

The PALM 400 - acronym for 'Precision Attack Loitering Munition' is a long-range, high-precision loitering munition system.
It is the result of a joint venture between AVision Systems (Israel), UVision Air Ltd, and Aditya Precitech Private Ltd (APPL).
It is built to fly over areas where armored vehicles are concentrated or are anticipated.
Each PALM 400 selects its targets when armored vehicles enter the kill zone and launch an armor-piercing projectile, penetrating it from the top where there is least protection.
India will test an ‘aerial targeting system’ called PALM 400 for the artillery directorate.

It is created by AVision Systems, a joint venture between Israeli firm UVision Air Ltd and Hyderabad-based Aditya Precitech Private Ltd.
It is designed to fly over armoured vehicle concentrations, or areas where they are expected.
It is launched from a canister and can loiter (remain on station) over a kill zone for up to 120 minutes flying at 3,000-4,000 feet above the ground.
India: creation of a joint venture for loitering munitions

At the Defexpo fair held in India from February 5 to 8, UVision announced a joint venture with the Indian Aditya Precitech. This new company, called Avision, will span a large range of activity for Loitering Munitions Systems such as the design, manufacture, sales, maintenance, support, upgrading, and lifecycle management. The company will especially focus on systems already in service and combat-proven under the brand PALM (Precision Attack Loitering Munition) Hero Systems. AVision aims to address the needs of the Indian defense and paramilitary sectors that can implement this type of ammunition drone.
