Mumbai, India – In a groundbreaking initiative, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has embarked on an ambitious project to develop a robotic mule, codenamed Project STAR. This innovative endeavour aims to create an autonomous, load-carrying robot designed to support the Indian Army in various terrain and operational conditions.
Expected to be completed within the next three years, Project STAR promises to revolutionize logistics and supply chain management in the military. The robotic mule is envisioned to navigate challenging landscapes, ensuring efficient transportation of essential goods, ammunition, and equipment.
According to sources, the robotic mule will be equipped with advanced navigation systems, enabling it to traverse difficult terrain with ease. Its autonomous nature will minimize the risk of casualties and enhance operational efficiency.
Project STAR is a testament to India’s growing focus on leveraging cutting-edge technology to strengthen its defence capabilities. Once completed, the robotic mule is expected to play a vital role in supporting the Indian Army’s operations, particularly in high-altitude and remote areas.
With its completion slated for 2027, Project STAR is poised to mark a significant milestone in India’s defence research and development landscape. As the project progresses, it will undoubtedly garner attention from defence enthusiasts and experts worldwide.
