HOLDING ITS OWN

Bharat Forge through its wholly-owned subsidiary company Kalyani Strategic Systems Ltd. is positioned well to bag big defence contracts. A testimony to this is the Kalyani Maverick ATC, an Armoured Troop Carrier (ATC) whose successful trial is known to have been completed in FY2021. The trial deserves a special mention given that it is known to have been conducted in unfavourable conditions across the length and breadth of the country as part of the overall Group trials. From Leh (vehicle) in North to Trichy (small arms) in the south; from Pokhran (CIWS) in the west to Sikkim (ATAGS) in the east; overland (Artillery Gun, Vehicles, CIWS etc.), sea (Torpedo homing heads) and air (UAVs). Following its first public experience at DefExpo2020, it was recently displayed again at the International Police Expo 2021 (Watch out for the detailed report in the 15th Anniversary Issue of CV Ma).
