Lucknow startup HoverIt just tested their new long range loitering munitions, the Divyastra Mk2. It can hit targets up to 2,000 km away! It's really amazing how fast they were able to build and test this. 🇮🇳🚀 #MakeInIndia

Lucknow-based HoverIt successfully conducts high-speed taxi trials of #DivyastraMK2 loitering munition 🚀 With a striking range of 2,000 km, this marks a major boost for indigenous defence tech 🇮🇳 #MakeInIndia #DefenceTech #India

@theupindex WTF is this ? Don’t they have 3D printers?

@dayat5am @theupindex x.com/hoveritofficia…

@theupindex Is it some attempt to get government funding? The 'whatever it is' is poorly designed. Anybody can tell it has a lot of drag due to its aerodynamic design. It veered off the road and most probably crashed. Get on to the work and then play a song like this after the result.

@xWaceem @theupindex x.com/hoveritofficia…

@theupindex In case you are wondering, it is not designed to fly. Its a road drone, just like TejASS which is a road fighter jet. Stay on ground, stay safe 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

They have to be specific in conveying value additions in existing tech for inviting investors and parteners. Otherwise this audio visual has all the potential to get trolled merely as a milestone of a Company specific break through. Industry has come far ahead and founders should not be exposed to discouragement.

TRL without MRL is invention. MRL without TRL is manufacturing without advantage. But when TRL and MRL converge—innovation finds its orbit, and capability becomes national power. #Divyastra-type systems cannot emerge from fragmented ecosystems because what they demand is not just invention—but readiness convergence. In deep-tech defence, the real gap is rarely in ideas; it is in translating those ideas into deployable, repeatable, and scalable capability. This is precisely where the distinction—and the power—of #TRL (Technology Readiness Levels) and #MRL (Manufacturing Readiness Levels) becomes decisive. TRL answers a fundamental question: Does the technology work? It moves from early-stage scientific validation to lab prototypes, to controlled environment testing, and eventually to operational validation in real-world conditions. A Divyastra-class system reaching higher TRLs means its ISR stack can detect reliably, its loitering munition can strike accurately, and its decoy mechanisms can effectively disrupt adversarial systems—not just in theory, but in contested environments. But TRL alone does not win wars. MRL asks a far more unforgiving question: Can this be built at scale, reliably, and under operational constraints? It governs production repeatability, supply chain resilience, materials engineering, quality assurance, and lifecycle sustainability. A system may be TRL-8 or TRL-9—proven in trials—but without MRL maturity, it remains a demonstration, not a deployable asset. This is where most nations—and most startups—fail. They celebrate technological breakthroughs but underestimate industrialization. The battlefield, however, rewards not the best prototype—but the system that can be produced, deployed, repaired, and replenished at scale. In the context of Divyastra and ecosystems like the #UPDefenceCorridor, the real breakthrough is the compression of TRL and MRL timelines into a unified progression. When a startup like @hoveritofficial operates within such a corridor, design teams are not isolated from manufacturing realities, testing is not disconnected from production constraints, and operational feedback loops are not delayed by institutional silos. Engineers, fabricators, supply chains, and end-users exist within the same ecosystem—creating a continuous loop of iteration, validation, and scaling. This is what transforms innovation into #sovereignty. @DefenceMinIndia @CMOfficeUP @upeidaofficial @AwasthiAwanishK @_InvestUP @ecelliitk @IASshashank10 @IIDGoUP

@TS10221 @Duorope Yes indeed 100% Prototype (#Divyastra-MK2) and this is High Speed Taxi Trials as mentioned. #Divyastra-MK1 has completed Flight Trials. #Divyastra-MK2 has completed High Speed Taxi Trials.

@Duorope Look at the front tyre….its 100% in the prototype phase . They probably haven’t done a full sclae flight test yet . They’ll add it for sure .@hoveritofficial ?

Just for discussion purposes - Why is the system built for the wheeled runway launch and not the vehicle mount launch system or rail launch? It brings many disadvantages.

@hoveritofficial Will eggspertz please stop criticizing this. The thing has to fly first, so the wings, power plant and controls need to be perfected. Howling and whining about the esthetics of the front part are completely idiotic.

India’s unmanned warfare narrative is no longer evolving—it is accelerating. Systems like #DivyastraMK1 (flight trials) and #DivyastraMK2 (taxi trials) are not drones; they are early signals of a new combat architecture. The convergence of #ISR, #LoiteringMunitions, and #ElectronicWarfare into a single decision loop is where the #FutureOfWarfare is being defined—and India is now building at that edge. The world built platforms—Switchblade, Harop, Bayraktar, Lancet—each powerful in isolation. Divyastra challenges that model. It integrates sensing, deception, and strike into one adaptive system. That is not iteration. That is doctrine. But the real story is not just what is being built—it is where it is being built. @hoveritofficial , operating out of the #UPDefenceCorridor, represent a new force in India’s defence ecosystem. This is #DeepTechIndia in motion—founders, engineers, and policymakers co-creating capability in real time. Defence corridors are not industrial parks; they are instruments of #SovereignTech—designed to compress the journey from idea to battlefield. Nations that win future wars will not be those with the most platforms. They will be those with the fastest, most adaptive ecosystems. #India is beginning to build exactly that. ⚡@DefenceMinIndia @CMOfficeUP @upeidaofficial @AwasthiAwanishK @_InvestUP @ecelliitk @IASshashank10 @IIDGoUP

@alpha_defense hi @alpha_defense how do we connect.

First of all, kudos. Makers and doers are exactly the kind of people we need. That said, could you please share the complete video? I’d like to review it fully before writing an article on this. From what I saw, it seemed to be drifting away from its axis. While a first taxi run on a road that isn’t as flat as a runway is understandable, I just want to be sure before drawing any conclusions.

From Blueprint to Battlefield readiness in months, not years. #Divyastra MK2 145 km/h high-speed taxi trials. Real system. Real testing. While others iterate on slides, we moved to real-world validation. • Rapid prototyping • Aggressive iteration • Field-ready systems

India’s DIVYASTRA MK2 Long-Range Strike UAV Begins Taxi Trials 🇮🇳🔥 Lucknow-based startup Hoverlt has announced the start of taxi trials for DIVYASTRA MK2, its next-generation long-range strike UAV built for deep missions in contested airspace. > Range: 1,500–2,000 km > Endurance: 8–12 hours > Payload: 50–100 kg 👉 The UAV is designed for deep strike, long-range surveillance, and high-value precision missions far inside hostile territory. > Cruise speed: ~180 km/h > Terminal attack speed: 300–400 km/h 👉 A major highlight is its planned AI-enabled swarm capability, allowing coordinated operations with multiple drones. > Also designed for GPS-denied warfare > Uses encrypted sovereign command and control systems 👉 DIVYASTRA MK2 is moving beyond the loitering munition category and into the space of long-range autonomous strike platforms... a major capability jump for India’s drone ecosystem. 📌 Follow @_TheTathya for more such updates.

🚨 DIVYASTRA MK2 hits 145 km/h taxi trials, fast-tracked toward 2000 km strike capability in record time. Developed by Lucknow-based defence startup HoverIt, the long-range kamikaze UAV is now moving into real-world testing phase.
