On December 15th, A. Bharat Bhushan Babu, the Spokesperson of the Indian Ministry of Defence, shared a tweet that was subsequently echoed and commented by NC Bipindra in EurAsian Times. This announcement celebrated India's entry into an exclusive group of nations possessing the ability to deploy flying wing technology. The milestone was achieved through the successful testing of the Autonomous Flying Wing Technology (AFWT) Demonstrator in its final configuration. This scaled-down version of an advanced unmanned combat aerial vehicle, modeled after Northrop Grumman’s B-21 Raider, marked a significant achievement for India.
