The event also saw the approval of 12 new projects covering strategic, aerospace, naval, and electronic warfare (EW) domains — reflecting India’s growing commitment to defence self-reliance.The Technology Development Fund (TDF) is a scheme launched by the Ministry of Defence and implemented by DRDO to support indigenous development of defence technologies.
