TL;DR
Pravaig Dynamics has launched 'VEER', India's first electric military vehicle, designed for stealth and high-mobility defence operations, reinforcing India's self-reliance in defence technology.
Bengaluru-based Pravaig Dynamics has introduced 'VEER', India's first indigenous all-electric military vehicle, marking a significant advancement in the nation's defence technology. Designed for the Indian Armed Forces, the VEER EV boasts stealth capabilities, high terrain mobility, and quick field-repair readiness, making it a powerful asset for modern military operations. The vehicle recently secured the iDEX (Innovation for Defence Excellence) award, a recognition from the Indian government for groundbreaking defence innovations.
The VEER EV is engineered for stealth missions and challenging terrains such as deserts, mountains, and forests. Its low noise and heat output are crucial for covert operations, while its all-terrain electric system ensures smooth movement across diverse landscapes. Following successful military trials conducted earlier this year, Pravaig Dynamics is reportedly scaling up production. The next phases involve certification, cost optimization, and integration into military logistics.
This achievement strongly supports India's 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' (self-reliant India) vision, aiming to reduce dependence on imported defence equipment and boost indigenous innovation. The successful deployment of VEER could also position India as a global player in tactical electric vehicles, potentially opening up export opportunities to friendly nations seeking green and stealthy mobility solutions.
