The warfare landscape is changing along with the threatscape for India. Earlier trends mandated that complex defence technology be sourced from outside of the country. However, recent government policy changes combined with increased public-private partnerships have enabled high-end defence engineering design to be done within India itself, and this trend will only rise with time. Established firms apart, startups are also playing a crucial role in establishing the country as self-reliant in defence technology. The Government of India has also opened the defence industry for private sector participation, thus providing an impetus to indigenous manufacturing.
