DLRL’s Develops New Mobile AI-Driven Jammer Designed To Defeat Next-Gen Cognitive Military Radios

AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication

The Defence Electronics Research Laboratory (DLRL) of DRDO is developing a vehicle‑mounted jammer to counter cognitive military radios. Three units will cover 30 MHz to 6 GHz, offering 360° detection and jamming up to 20 km. The jammer reacts in under 5 µs, capable of disrupting radios hopping up to 2,000 times per second. Deployment can be achieved in under an hour, with delivery and testing slated for completion within 21 months. The system supports India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat strategy and enhances electronic warfare readiness against AI‑driven communication networks.

💡 Why It Matters

  • · By neutralizing adaptive radios, the jammer secures command‑and‑control links, ensuring operational integrity in contested environments.
