🔴 High Alert for UPSC Mains 2025

#GS3 #InternalSecurity #DefenceTech

❓ Expected Mains Q (GS3 – Internal Security):
“Drone warfare is rapidly evolving from a tactical tool to a strategic weapon. Discuss with global examples and evaluate India’s preparedness.” (15 marks)

🔍 Why this is HIGHLY probable (2025 relevance):

🛰️ Drone = Strategic Weapon
– Operation Spider Web (Ukraine): Cheap, AI-guided drones hit deep Russian airbases.
– Nagorno-Karabakh: Kamikaze drones dismantled air defences.
– Myanmar: Rebels using 3D-printed UAVs—low-cost warfare revolution.

🇮🇳 India’s Combat Entry – Operation Sindoor
– First real-time drone + standoff weapon use at LoC—military doctrine shift.

⚠️ Rising Threats
– China: Swarm drones (CH-901, Wing Loong), edge at LAC.
– Pakistan: Bayraktar TB2, Wing Loong via Türkiye & China.
– Non-State Actors: Weaponized commercial drones → terror risk.
