IG Defence and MSA Global sign MoU to localize platforms
Business
IG Defence from India and Oman's MSA Global have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore opportunities to co-develop and localize three defense platforms, using IG's own tech like KAL (a long-range attack drone), BAJ (a counter-drone system), and JWALA (a micro-missile for stopping drones).
The big idea? Build these in Oman to boost local defense across the Gulf region.
