India’s ‘Infinity’ Can Fly 90 Days Continuously
Design and development of an ultra high altitude
Indian-made drone, has progressed significantly and could be available to the
Indian armed forces within three to five years.
The solar-powered drone, called the Infinity, is
designed to cruise at an altitude of more than 65,000 feet for ninety days and
would be a key element in India’s CATS or the Combat Air Teaming System.

Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, in partnership with NewSpace, a Bengaluru based start-up closely involved in
developing cutting-edge drone solutions, are developing this new drone.
‘The
stratosphere will form the next phase of exploitation for the next generation
of airborne platforms towards future warfare needs,”said a source closely
involved in the programme.
Equipped with a variety of sensors including a
state-of-the-art synthetic aperture radar, Infinity will keep track of targets
deep within enemy territory and coordinate attack missions carried out by other
Indian drone systems, such as the Warrior ‘loyal wingman,’ Alfa-S swarm drones
or Hunter cruise missile which are part of India’s indigenous Combat
Air Teaming System.
