In order to develop far reaching technologies and create an entire defence ecosystem we have recently incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary – APOLLO DEFENCE INDUSTRIES PRIVATE LIMITED. This subsidiary will focus on creating alliances and technological partnerships with various international companies to provide cutting edge defence solutions and serve the nation.
Company has also signed multiple Transfer of Technology (ToT) agreements with Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).
Sharing more details of the company’s future projects at annual general meeting, Mr. Baddam Karunakar Reddy, Founder and Managing Director, Apollo Micro Systems Ltd said, “Company has entered into significant agreements with the Defence Research and Development Organisation. These agreements mark a significant milestone in our ongoing partnership with DRDO and signify our commitment to excellence in technology and innovation in defense-related projects. Company is gradually scaling up to be a Weapon Design, Development and manufacturing company for which the Weapon Integration facilities are being commissioned.”
Established in 1985, Apollo Micro Systems is a pioneer in Design, Development and assembly of Custom Built Electronics and Electro-mechanical solutions. Company offers solutions based on state-of-the-art technologies for Aerospace, Defense & Space as primary customers and also caters solutions for Railways, Automotive and Home Land Security markets. Its wide spectrum of technological solutions and end to end design, assembly & testing capabilities gives it an edge over the competition. Company’s products are used across multiple industries including Aerospace Systems, Ground Defence, Space, Avionics Systems, Homeland Security, and Transportation.
Company present facility is occupied by Design and manufacturing teams spread across 55,000 Sft will split into three units with different activities carried in multiple locations. Company has a team of 300+ employees, including 150+ employees in R&D.
The Government allocated Rs. 5.95 lakh crore for the Ministry of Defence in the Budget 2023-24. During the year the Government notified fourth Positive Indigenization List consisting of 101 items for which there would be an embargo on the imports.
“This represents a great opportunity for the Indian defence industry to manufacture these items using indigenous design and development capabilities to meet the demand of the armed forces. The company is in discussion with various international companies who wish to manufacture their products under Make in India and this facility would be utilised to meet their manufacturing requirements”, said Mr. Baddam Karunakar Reddy.
The details of the agreements with DRDO are as follows:
–Transfer of Technology (ToT) Agreement for Guidance and Navigation Technology: This agreement pertains to significant technology which has immense potential in both domestic and international markets. The technology is used to convert conventional non guided weapons to Guided Weapon. The company has been working closely with DRDO on this technology and has now been selected as a ToT Partner through a Licensing Agreement for Transfer of Technology.
–ToT Agreement for Weaponisation of Hand-Held Thermal Imager with LRF (WHHTI): This cutting-edge technology involves the weaponization of a Hand-Held Thermal Imager with Laser Range Finder (LRF). WHHTI is state of art weaponization platform featuring an Electro-Optical System which not only meets the requirement of monitoring of border area/ sensitive area but also intends to provide remotely operated counter measure to neutralize the threat under all conditions. The system has capability of surveillance and engagement of potential threats remotely. Its technical features are enhancement of existing HHTI’s role, observation & engagement with soldier in protected location & Soldier stays in controlled environment increasing the operational efficiency. The system eliminates the need of two soldiers to carry out surveillance and threat neutralizing activities thus reducing the chances of miscommunication or human error.
–ToT Agreement for Rotary Electro Mechanical Actuator: This agreement represents the Company’s collaboration with DRDO in developing Linear and Rotary Electro Mechanical Actuators for various capacities. The Company has now been selected as a ToT Partner through a Licensing Agreement for the Transfer of Technology.
–ToT Agreement for Unified Avionics Computer: The Unified Avionics Computer is a complex On-Board subsystem which plays a critical role in the Weapon and has all control guidance and navigational algorithms. The company has been working closely with DRDO on this technology and it has now been selected as a ToT Partner through a Licensing Agreement for Transfer of Technology.
