Prime Minister Modi was at Adampur airbase in Punjab yesterday (13 May). Here he said, Pakistan targeted our military base and citizens with drones, UAV, military aircraft and missiles, but all of them failed in front of our air defense system.
The air defense system that Modi was praising is none other than India has its own sky and control system. With this help, hundreds of drones, missiles and rockets coming from Pakistan were killed in the air. This defense system was also discussed in press briefing.
This feat of Akashtir is discussed all over the world and it is being called the iron dome of India. Talk in this story of India’s integrated and fast air defense system Akashtir …
1. What is Akashlir System?
Akashtir is an indigenous Artificial Intelligence-Powered Air Defense System that has jointly designed and developed by Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO), Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) and Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) for the Indian Army.
Its task is to monitor low-level aircraft and control the air defense weapon system posted on the ground. Akashtir forms a single network by integrating radar, sensor and communication systems, which is capable of detecting, tracking and neutralizing air threats in real time.

2. How does the sky work?
Real-Time Threat Assessment: Akashtir system takes real time data from different sources such as radar stations, missile units and air sensors and converts them into single live air situations. In a few seconds, the defense unit has a clear image of danger coming from the enemy. Then the dream system kills it in the air itself.
Inter-operateability: Inter operation means working with different machines at the same time. At the same time, Akashtir is easily connected to the surface-to-air missile, spider system and indigenous radar networks such as Rohini and Arudhra. All these units collect data together and give information about the target to the missile system or intercept unit.

Different radar systems of India.
3. Why did India develop it by applying 15 years?
Especially developed for future wars: With the help of AI in the command system, the sky is analyzed by the sky, the root mapping of the enemy’s target and the automatic weapon accordingly selects the automatic weapon.
First line of defense in war on two fronts: In the event of war on two fronts simultaneously, the sky is capable of coordinating between the air defense response team in different regions. It combines ground -based missile units with air warning systems such as Netra and Falcon.
Strengthen India’s “Kill Chain” in seconds: The speed with which Akash can understand the Threat, can process and respond is very important for India’s “Kill Chain”. Its automation reduces processing time significantly. This provides dominance and layered defense in the aircraft.
4. How is the sky and iron dome different?
Akashtir and Iron play different roles in Dome Air Defense. Which has different functions, origin and operational focus. Since the task of these two is to track the target and react accordingly. So both seem to be the same in terms of sharp response …
Akashtir’s focus area: There is a controlling and reporting system. It does not include any weapon system directly. It manages and controls air defense assets like missile or gun. But does not attack the target directly.
Focus area of iron dome: It is a kinetic interception system. Which uses the direct weapon system to protect civilian and military areas from the dangers coming from the sky. It is not a command system but a attack system.

5. What is the difference between Akash Tarr and Akash missile system?
Akashtir is different from the Akash missile system. The Akash Missile System is the Surfate to Air Missile System of a Medium Range, developed by DRDO and BEL and BDL. It launches missiles to neutralize the aerial threats. While Akashtir is a command and control system, which controls and coordinate these weapons.

Pakistan on Thursday tried to attack 15 Indian military bases. India’s Russian Made S-400 Air Defense System thwarted everyone. In return, India has destroyed the HQ-9 air defense system posted in Lahore, Pakistan. It was bought from China four years ago.
