India Explores Ramjet-Powered Loitering Munition for Supersonic Strikes

The Indian Army is exploring a new class of supersonic loitering munitions, aimed at countering modern air defenses and emerging threats in contested environments.

The drone utilizes a ramjet engine, which keeps it flying at high speed by compressing incoming air through forward motion, eliminating the need for conventional rotating components.

This performance significantly reduces enemy air defense reaction time, improving the weapon’s chances of penetrating targets and completing its mission.
