The defence ministry has signed a contract with Bharat Electronics Limited to supply 149 software-defined radios for the Indian Coast Guard. This deal is worth ₹1,220.12 Crore.
These radios will enhance secure and dependable communication for the Coast Guard. With high-speed data and secure voice channels, they will improve teamwork and situational awareness.
This upgrade will strengthen the Coast Guard’s ability to carry out key duties such as enforcing maritime laws, protecting fisheries, conducting search and rescue missions, and safeguarding the marine environment. Moreover, the new radios will facilitate better coordination with the Indian Navy during joint operations.
