Rudra Brigade:
The Army successfully validated a newly raised Rudra all-arms integrated brigade during the major tri-service Trishul exercise, prompting discussions on upgrading India’s Cold Start doctrine to a “Cold Strike” doctrine.A Rudra Brigade is a newly conceptualised all-arms, permanently integrated combat formation combining infantry, mechanised units, armour, artillery, air defence, engineers, signals, drones, logistics and support elements under a single operational framework. Operated by the Indian Army, under different regional Corps (e.g., Konark Corps on western front). Two Rudra brigades already deployed on the northern borders (Eastern Ladakh & Sikkim).
