Summary of coverage from The Times of India · Original article: 22 September 2026.
The Times of India reports that IG Defence conducted a flight trial of its KAL one-way attack drone at Pokhran. The company described the exercise as validation of the platform’s integrated systems and a milestone in domestic development.

These performance statements are attributed to the report and company account. The trial should be understood as a development milestone, rather than a confirmed procurement order or operational induction.
