The DRDO Rustom (English: Warrior) is a Medium Altitude Long Endurance unmanned combat air vehicle (UCAV) being developed by Defence Research and Development Organisation for the three services, Indian Army, Indian Navy and the Indian Air Force of the Indian Armed Forces. Rustom is derived from the NAL's LCRA (Light Canard Research Aircraft) developed by a team under the leadership of late Prof Rustom Damania in the 1980s. The UAV will have structural changes and a new engine. Rustom will replace/supplement the Heron UAVs in service with the Indian armed forces.

Current status:

Rustom-2 is an unmanned combat air vehicle(UCAV) developed by India on the lines of the American Predator drones.

In October, 2010 A senior DRDO official stated,

“ The American RQ-1 Predator is an obvious template for the Rustom program. We’ve built a credible unmanned flying platform. The way the Americans converted a robust surveillance drone into a combat drone is something we are confident we can replicate for the Rustom-H. It will have a great deal of mission flexibility.
[Work] is underway to define theweaponisation process.


In February 2012, ADE Director P S Krishnan stated,

“ Designing of Rustom-2 has been completed, purchase orders have been placed and we are on schedule to fly for the first time in February 2014. ”

I think we should use Iranian expertise specifically in this area .... :cheers:

First of all you need to change it's design !

It's far from efficiency & creates so much RCS !
