WTF... WTF!!!!??
It took the Indian Army a trip to the US to be convinced about the quality and efficiency of Tonbo’s products. In its initial days, Tonbo had approached the Indian Army to sell its devices, but the Army was skeptical about the product as it did not have any existing users. Later, in 2012, Tonbo approached the US Army Special Forces, who procured around 15 pieces of its thermal imaging device from the company, helping Tonbo validate its product. “The Indian military was on a joint exercise in the US when the US Army Special Forces were using this equipment (Tonbo’s); the visiting Indian team was fascinated by the equipment and on enquiring, found out that the devices came from back home in Bangalore,” says Arvind.
Tonbo had already sold its products to about four-five foreign clients before the Indian defence forces decided to procure its devices. Today, Tonbo counts organisations like US agency Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), India’s NSG, CRPF, the Indian Army’s Northern Command, companies like BHEL, L&T, TATA and others, and security forces from across the world among its clientele. Some of the company’s imaging systems were procured by the Turkish army to strengthen its fight against the IS.
