India tested its anti-drone capabilities during the ROTOR CLAP III military drills, held at Rajasthan's Pokhran Field Firing Range. During the exercise, the Indian Air Force tested its ability to counter unmanned aerial systems using helicopters. Attack helicopters like the AH-64 Apache, the Mi-25, Mi-35 and the Prachand took part in the drills. So did transport and utility choppers like the Chinook, Mi-17 and the Dhruv. In this video, The IAF is getting its choppers ready to destroy hostile drones. The IAF has a list of upgrades to make its helicopter fleet ready for drone warfare.
