Q. Which organization has developed India's man-portable air defense missile system called VSHORADS?
Answer: Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO)
Notes: DRDO successfully conducted three flight trials of the VSHORADS off Odisha's Chandipur coast. Tests targeted high-speed, low-altitude aerial threats, simulating low-flying drones. The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has developed India's man-portable air defense missile system, known as the Very Short Range Air Defence System (VSHORADS). This system is designed to neutralize low-altitude aerial threats at ranges up to 6 kilometers. The VSHORADS, which represents a significant advancement in India's defense technology, is notable for its state-of-the-art uncooled imaging infrared seeker, making it technically superior to existing man-portable air defense systems in the Indian armed forces.
