Defence start-up Hyper Stealth Technologies bags first order under iDEX

Hyderabad-based HSTPL has got an order from Indian Army for Integrated Mobile Camouflage System

Given its arsenal of about 5,000 tanks, 3,000 infantry combat vehicles, 4,000 artillery guns and rocket launchers, and over 12,000 trucks, the Indian Army is one of the world’s biggest customers for Integrated Mobile Camouflage System (IMCS) solutions to hide all these vehicles.

The first inroad into this billion-dollar market has been made by an Indian defence start-up, Hyper Stealth Technologies Private Limited (HSTPL). The firm announced on Wednesday that it has bagged an order for IMCS, becoming the first winner of the defence ministry’s Innovations for Defence Excellence (iDEX) programme to receive an order from the Indian armed forces.
