Bengaluru. Tata Advanced Systems, in partnership with the Defence Research and Development Organisation, has played a critical role in designing and industrialising the Pinaka MLRS — an all-weather, high-mobility artillery system capable of delivering sustained, high-volume firepower with precision across varied terrains.
What merits emphasis is not just capability, but evolution. The Pinaka Multi Barrel Rocket Launcher has transitioned from a DRDO-led programme into a scalable, production-ready platform — where private industry now anchors manufacturing depth, quality control, and supply chain resilience.
With ~80% indigenous content, this is less about localisation optics and more about strategic autonomy — reduced import dependency, faster replenishment cycles, and the ability to iterate upgrades domestically.
In effect, TASL is not merely a build partner; it is enabling India’s shift towards sovereign artillery capability with export potential.
