Turkish company Zyrone Dynamics, which offers unique UAV solutions using advanced technologies, is preparing to ship its ZCQM multirotor 100 military drones to India.
Before the end of the year, Zyrone will ship the first mini multi-rotor drone and subsequent deliveries will continue in batches until 2022. Nearly 100 drones are planned to be delivered next year by the company, reported Anadolu Agency (AA).
The company will conduct demo flights for defense tenders in India in March 2022 and is also planning to expand to Far East countries.
The Indian embassy in Turkey tweeted on August 18 hinting at a “new beginning”. The embassy was responding to reports that an Indian firm had invested in a Turkish drone manufacturer. On the sidelines of the International Defense Industries Fair (IDEF) in Istanbul, DCM Shriram signed a partnership agreement with Zyrone Dynamics of Turkey.
DCM Shriram invested around $1 million in Zyrone Dynamics, acquiring a 30% share in the firm. Murat Kanber, the co-founder of Zyrone Dynamics, was quoted by Turkey’s Anadolu Agency as saying, “Both sides’ expectation is the creation of products for civilian use, especially for cargo transportation… Now Zyrone will sell its products to India and its neighbors in the Asian market, after which it also hopes to export drones to Europe and Australia.”
“The partnership is more than just an investment,” Rudra Shriram said on behalf of DCM Shriram. “It is about developing a global UAV company for various applications in civilian and military domains.”
