Indian Navy successfully undertook the maiden test drop of an indigenous Search and Rescue Kit (SARK) on August 15. The Indian Navy tested the Made-in-India SARK from the Boeing P-8I long-range patrol aircraft.
“The SAR kit gives the Indian Navy the capability to undertake search and rescue operations from long ranges off the coast and strengthens India’s position as a Preferred Security Partner in the Indian Ocean Region,” the Indian Navy’s Western Naval Command said in a post on X.
The SAR kit has been developed by Agra-based Defence Research and Development Organisation’s laboratory, Aerial Delivery Research and Development Establishment (ADRDE). The test flight was conducted by the Indian Navy’s INS Hansa-based INAS 316 squadron on Independence Day.
