Join Brigadier Sandeep Tyagi, Colonel Vikrant Shinde and Arindam Goswami in this episode of All Things Policy, where we dive deep into one of India's most sophisticated homegrown defence innovations - the Akashteer air defence network. Born from India's quest for self-reliance in defence technology, Akashteer is a testament to Indian engineering prowess, capable of generating dynamic common air situational awareness for the air defence warriors.

From its development by Bharat Electronics Ltd (BEL) to its deployment across India’s air defence architecture, Akashteer has transformed how India defends its airspace. But what makes this system truly remarkable isn't just its technical specifications - it's the story of how a nation built world-class defence technology from the ground up.

So buckle up as we explore the science, strategy, and significance of India's Akashteer air defence system - a shield in the sky that's reshaping regional security dynamics.

Our guest today, Brigadier Sandeep Tyagi, is a veteran of army air defence. He has contributed towards shaping the contours of project Akashteer, and has been closely associated with IAF throughout his service for AD operations.
