Pune: The first set of indigenously developed next-generation Armoured Engineer Reconnaissance Vehicle, designed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) was inducted into the Corps of Engineers of Indian Army in a solemn function attended by Gen MM Naravane, the Chief of Army Staff at Pune on December 21, 2021.

The vehicle is capable of carrying out reconnaissance of water obstacles and boggy patches for the execution of engineer tasks with capabilities to carry out reconnaissance and provide real-time updates to force commanders. The system will enhance the existing engineer reconnaissance capabilities of the Indian Army and would be a major game-changer in support of mechanised operations in future conflicts.
