Indian Army raises first Baaz drone battalion along western border
The Indian Army has established its first dedicated drone unit, named the Baaz Battalion, positioned along the western front. The battalion will operate under the Vajra Corps, which oversees sensitive border regions in northern Punjab. The unit is designed to handle roles ranging from border surveillance to deep strike operations. As part of a broader modernisation push, the Army is integrating drones across multiple branches, including combat and support functions. Infantry battalions are set to receive Ashni platoons, while artillery units will induct specialised Divyastra batteries.
