Bharat Dynamics

India began to develop indigenous missiles through the Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme , which gave BDL an opportunity to be closely involved with the programme wherein it was identified as the Prime Production Agency. This opened up a plethora of opportunities to assimilate advanced manufacturing and programme management technologies and skills. Responding to the Concurrent Engineering Approaches adopted by DRDO in IGMDP, BDL was seen as a reliable and trust worthy ally, and resulted in the induction of India's first state-of- the-art Surface-to-Surface Missile Prithvi. BDL has delivered Prithvi to the three services as per requirements. BDL has forayed into the field of under water weapon systems and air-to-air missiles and associated equipment with technology support from the DRDO and other players in this domain.
