DRDO’s VSHORAD
VSHORADS is a Man Portable Air Defence System (MANPAD) designed and being developed indigenously by DRDO’s Research Centre Imarat (RCI), Hyderabad in collaboration with other DRDO laboratories and Indian Industry Partners. It is being developed for neutralizing low altitude aerial threats at short ranges such as UAVs, helicopters and aircrafts. In the multi-layered air defence network, VSHORAD is going to be the last line of defence.
VSHORAD: Technical Specifications

On 14 MAR 2023, DRDO has conducted two consecutive successful flight tests of Very Short Range Air Defence System (VSHORADS) missile at the Integrated Test Range, Chandipur off the coast of Odisha . The flight tests were carried out from a ground-based man portable launcher against high speed unmanned aerial targets, mimicking approaching and receding aircraft. The targets were successfully intercepted, meeting all mission objectives.
VSHORAD Production & Orders
In a meeting held by Defence Acquisition Council (DAC) on January 10, 2023, under the chairmanship of Raksha Mantri Shri Rajnath Singh, the Acceptance of Necessity (AoN) has been granted for procurement of VSHORAD (IR Homing) missile system.
The Adani Defence has been chosen for joint development and the firm is confident of developing a commercial version of VSHORAD by the end of year 2023. The company was tasked with developing missile products under Development-cum-Production Partner (DCPP) policy.
Under the DCPP policy, DRDO designs the product and hands over the drawings and technical particulars to the private or public industry to make a prototype. This prototype is then put to tests and trials. Based on the trial’s outcome, these prototypes are allowed for commercial production.
