Indian Army 3 INCH FPV DRONE Tender India 2026 - FPV Drone Supply, Installation, Testing & Training under 3 Years OEM Warranty

Tender Overview

The Indian Army, under the Department of Military Affairs, invites bids for a 3 INCH FPV DRONE category procurement with scope including supply, installation, testing, commissioning, and operator training. Bidders must ensure completion at consignee locations with statutory clearances as required. A key differentiator is the extended option clause permitting a 25% quantity variation during contract execution, at contracted rates. The ATC emphasizes pre-bid catalogue/visual sample submission for technical evaluation. The procurement aims to equip frontline operations with compact, agile FPV aerial capability. This opportunity targets suppliers capable of end-to-end delivery and after-sales support within India, backed by OEM warranty and service networks. The lack of BOQ items suggests a flexible, performance-based specification approach, with emphasis on compliance, training, and installation readiness.
