In contested electromagnetic environments, the map has to keep working even when the signal doesn't. Jamming. Spoofing. GPS denial. These are baseline assumptions on the modern battlefield. And they're exactly where most mapping and ISR systems start to fail. Our Q6 V3 is built for that reality: real-time 3D geospatial mapping and EW-resilient terrain intelligence for commanders who need decision-ready ground truth. Battlefield dominance isn't just about seeing further. It's about seeing clearly when the enemy is actively trying to make sure you can't. #BuiltDifferent #UAV #ElectronicWarfare #mapping

At the @republic Defence Forces First Conclave 2026, our CFO, @Joee_vipul, joined industry leaders to discuss what it will take for Bharat to emerge as a global leader in defence technology. The conversation focused on what truly builds strategic capability: indigenous R&D, sovereign IP, resilient supply chains, procurement frameworks that support indigenous innovation, and sustained investment in technologies that are indigenously designed, developed and manufactured. During the discussion, Vipul highlighted that capability compounds where demand is visible. Companies are able to commit their own capital to deep technology when procurement continuity is clear, and procurement frameworks appropriately recognise field-proven capability. As India's defence ecosystem evolves, building long-term capability - not just products - will be key to creating globally competitive defence technology companies.

When people see one million flights, they see a milestone. I see nearly 2 decades of customer trust, earned mission after mission, where reliability could never be compromised. Grateful to all who made it possible. The next chapter has begun. 🇮🇳 #OneMillionFlights

One million successful flights. It's easy to celebrate the number. What's harder to appreciate is what it took to earn it. Every successful flight represents a mission completed, a customer who placed their trust in us, and a lesson that made the next flight better. Over nearly two decades, our platforms have operated across demanding terrains, extreme climates, and complex mission environments, supporting national security, disaster response, public safety, mapping, governance, and critical infrastructure. Every mission has challenged our engineering. Every mission has made our platforms stronger. That's what #BuiltDifferent means to us. Not a claim, but a million opportunities to prove our #performance, #reliability, #resilience and #autonomy where failure was never an option. This milestone belongs to every customer, operator, partner, and every member of the ideaForge team who has been part of this journey. The first million has been earned. The next million is already lifting off. ▶️ Watch the journey -youtube.com/watch?v=UE7mtR… #OneMillionFlights #MadeInIndia #DroneTechnology #DefenceTech #ideaForge @adgpi @SpokespersonMoD @IaSouthern @NorthernComd_IA @Spearcorps @11thAirborneDiv @IAF_MCC @IndiannavyMedia @indiannavy @BSF_India @crpfindia @SSB_INDIA @MahaPolice @DelhiPolice @assamforest @SpEluruDistrict @GujaratPolice @uttarakhandcops @SisEnterprises @AdaniOnline @Vedanta_Group @MDLZ @larsentoubro @World_Wildlife @nasscom @nasscomdeeptech @ficci_india @dronefed @idrwalerts @NewsIADN @manishindiatv @kishanchand_89 @SIDMIndia @DefenceMinIndia @PMOIndia @mygovindia

From AI and space technologies to healthcare and deep tech, India's innovation story is entering a defining decade. Dr. R.A. Mashelkar's inspiring message reminded us that technology finds its true purpose only when it creates opportunities and transforms lives: Mr @ankit_ideaForge, Co-Chair, FICCI Drones Committee and Co-founder & CEO, ideaforge, at the #FICCILegendSeries.

Most #powerline failures don't begin with a broken conductor. They begin with a clearance that went unnoticed. Vegetation growth. Conductor sag. Changing terrain. Small deviations can quietly accumulate over time - until they become outages, safety hazards, or expensive emergency maintenance. Drone-based #LiDAR gives utilities the ability to see these changes before they become problems. By generating precise #3D corridor models, teams can measure clearances, identify vegetation encroachment, monitor conductor sag, and prioritise maintenance based on actual risk - not assumptions. Powered by the #Q6V2GEO integrated with Shodham #payloads and processed on #FLYGHTCloud, corridor surveys become actionable intelligence that helps utilities improve reliability, optimise maintenance cycles, and make faster, data-driven decisions.

One operator. One mission. Multiple UAVs. That's the idea behind Project Multi-UAV Capability. As missions become more complex, increasing capability isn't simply about deploying more platforms. It's about enabling a single operator to coordinate multiple #UAVs, each performing a distinct task while contributing to one shared objective. The latest article in our #ideaForgeLabs series explores what #MultiUAV really means, how it differs from swarm operations, and the engineering principles behind coordinating multiple UAVs as part of a single mission.

As #electronicwarfare becomes a defining requirement for modern operations, early investment is proving to be a strategic advantage. In @BWBusinessworld 's story, Private Defence Firms Are Winning Early Contracts But Long Term Supply Remains The Bigger Test, our Co-founder & CEO, @ankit_ideaForge, shares why #ideaForge began investing in electronic warfare resilience years before it became a mainstream #procurement requirement. Today, those investments have progressed from demonstrations to operational deployments, reinforcing our belief that enduring capability is built by anticipating future operational needs.

#Glaciers are changing faster than most monitoring methods can keep up with. The challenge has never been knowing that ice is retreating, it is measuring how much, how quickly, and what it means for the slopes, rivers, and communities downstream, especially when the terrain sits well beyond the reach of a ground survey team. This is where aerial #LiDAR changes the picture. By capturing dense, repeatable elevation models of glacial terrain, teams can quantify surface change and volume loss over successive seasons, identify where slopes are becoming unstable, and feed that intelligence directly into #infrastructure planning and #landslide prediction. The #q6v2geo integrated with Shodham #payloads captures high-density point cloud data across these environments, with insights delivered on Flyght Cloud, building a reliable, time-stamped record of how high-altitude terrain is evolving, gathered without putting anyone on dangerous ground.

At the @UN Informal Exchanges on AI in the Military Domain (#AIMD), convened by the UN Office for Disarmament Affairs (@UN_Disarmament) in #Geneva, our Co-founder and VP-Engineering, Rahul Singh, joined global discussions on the responsible development, deployment and governance of AI in defence and security applications. Over three days, diplomats, UN bodies, the ICRC, academics and industry examined the full lifecycle of military AI systems, from design and procurement to operation and decommissioning. Rahul spoke in the session on procurement, operation and decommissioning, focusing on the intersection of State responsibility and industry implementation. Among the themes he highlighted were the importance of building safeguards into systems from the outset through procurement, enabling continuous testing and evaluation throughout a system's lifecycle, and the need for trusted, interoperable approaches that support accountability and oversight in AI-enabled systems. He's shared his reflections and takeaways here, do give it a read- linkedin.com/feed/update/ur… And if you'd like to read the full statement: meetings.unoda.org/meeting/80858/… #TrustworthyAI #DefenceTechnology #Autonomy #ideaForge

What happens when a single operator can direct the actions of multiple #UAVs at the same time? As missions become more complex, scaling capability isn't simply about deploying more platforms. It's about enabling operators to coordinate, task and manage them effectively from a unified point of control. Project Multi-UAV Capability is our exploration of how multiple UAVs can operate as part of a coordinated mission under a single operator, extending reach, increasing flexibility and amplifying mission effectiveness without adding operational complexity. Because the future isn't defined by the number of platforms in the air, but by how effectively they can be orchestrated. This is where scale meets control. #experimentationneverstops #MultiUAV #ideaForgeLabs NOTE: ideaForge Labs | Experimental capabilities under active development. Not indicative of a finalised product, feature, or operational deployment.

Extreme cold is where most systems fail. Ours didn't. Our #SWITCH and #NETRAV4PRO UAVs were recently put through rigorous flight testing and demonstrations in Fairbanks, #Alaska, in collaboration with the Arctic Drone Integration Cell, 11th Airborne Division’s 1st Infantry Brigade Combat Team (1st IBCT), with temperatures reaching -30°F. In one of the world's most #extreme operational environments, our platforms delivered full flight endurance without compromise, a true test of what #BuiltDifferent means in practice. Personnel were also able to independently operate the systems after a short orientation, reflecting the intuitive design and field-readiness engineered into every #ideaForge platform. Extreme conditions are where design assumptions get tested and validated. These trials mark another milestone in ensuring our systems are mission-ready, anywhere operators need to deploy. @11thAirborneDiv @USArmy #DroneTechnology #ArcticOperations #AutonomousSystems #GlobalDefenceTech
