“India is among a handful of countries with indigenous capabilities in the defence fields such as multi-level strategic deterrence, ballistic missile defence, nuclear powered submarines, main battle tank, stealth destroyers, aircraft carriers and fourth generation fighter aircraft,” the Ministry of Defence said.

India will also showcase its emergence as an attractive investment destination in the defence sector.
