GOPALPUR, February 12, 2026 — Marking a significant milestone in modern aerial warfare capabilities, a sophisticated Integrated Air Defence Firepower Demonstration was successfully conducted at the Army AD College on February 11, 2026.
The exercise served as a high-octane showcase of the Indian Army’s evolving air defense strategies, emphasizing the importance of coordinated responses in an increasingly complex security landscape.
The demonstration highlighted the seamless synergy of diverse Air Defence (AD) weapon systems operating within a strictly networked environment. By integrating various platforms, the exercise successfully validated the entire “detection to engagement” cycle, proving the military’s ability to identify and neutralize new-age hybrid aerial threats.
This validation is critical for ensuring that ground forces remain protected from emerging technologies such as swarms and high-speed precision munitions.This successful display reaffirms the operational readiness of the Army Air Defence and its commitment to multi-domain integration.
By training in a synchronized, tech-heavy environment, the Army AD College continues to refine the tactical proficiency required to maintain air superiority and safeguard national assets against any contemporary aerial challenge.
