IDEAS 2024

The unveiling of the Ground Control Station (GCS) and operational setup for Pakistan's Shahpar III HALE UAV at IDEAS 2024 is a significant step forward for Pakistan's defense capabilities. The Shahpar III, developed by Global Industrial & Defence Solutions (GIDS), represents the country's strides in indigenous unmanned combat and surveillance technologies.

Key Highlights of the Shahpar III and its GCS:​

  1. HALE Class Performance:
    • High-Altitude, Long-Endurance (HALE): Capable of prolonged operations at high altitudes, making it ideal for border surveillance, intelligence gathering, and strike missions.
    • Armed with precision-guided munitions, offering both reconnaissance and combat capabilities.
  2. Advanced Ground Control Station:
    • Flight Control Console: Enables real-time UAV flight management, ensuring smooth operations over extended ranges.
    • Operations Console: Equipped for monitoring battlefield data, targeting, and mission planning.
    • Secure communication channels for live feed transmission and encrypted command inputs.
  3. Strategic Importance for Pakistan:
    • Enhances Pakistan’s ability to maintain situational awareness over sensitive regions, including border areas and maritime zones.
    • Strengthens Pakistan's ability to counter modern threats, especially in asymmetric warfare and counterterrorism operations.
    • Provides a deterrence capability against adversarial UAV systems.
The Shahpar III is poised to compete with similar UAVs globally, potentially expanding Pakistan's defense export portfolio while addressing its own strategic needs. Its debut at IDEAS 2024 underscores Pakistan’s focus on innovation and self-reliance in defense production.


Pakistan's premier defence conglomerate, #GIDS, is all set to launch the SHAHPAR-III Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) Combat UAV at #IDEAS2024. The UCAV features 6 external hardpoints, a 41,000 ft altitude ceiling, a range of 3,000 km, and a 40-hour operational endurance.
