These days we hear a lot that Pakistan needs Drone Technology, but i am wondering if we really lack in Drone technology in presence of Integrated Dynamics, SATUMA and East and West.

Integrated Dynamic is a Karachi-based private company that specializes in UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). It has several models developed already that are working in the field.

Similarly, The SATUMA lies 25 km out of Islamabad on the bank of river Soan with an engineering floor area of 5,000 Sq. ft. and a small airstrip for testing and evaluating scaled air frames, testing engines and other outdoor activities.

East-West provides alot of the sophisticated electronic devices that go into these UAVs to track terrorists. Today there is a growing ecosystem for robotics and UAVs, with work also being done on UUVs (underwater unmanned vehicles) and ground recon robots.

By the way, these Pakistani are doing pretty good job, as they were able to sell their UAVs to the US border patrol.

Here are few pictures of Pakistani Made Drones

    it is true also Dawn News reported this

    http://www.dawn.com/wps/wcm/connect/dawn-content-library/dawn/news/pakistan/drones-made-in-pakistan

    it has a website with complete information about the drones there website was http://www.idaerospace.com but now its gone. Their Plant is in Korangi Industrial Area.

    i’m not sure if its still there.

  6. Qasim says:

    Nothing more to say than this … PAKISTAN ZINDA BAAD …

  7. Tahir says:

    Its awesome ,But these little drones have a remote video view and GPRS/GIS/Satalite navigations

  8. S.M. Zahid says:

    I can’t believe it, then what and why they are begging for.

  9. Asm says:

    Amazing! we cant b left behind no matter what :)

    • S.M. Zahid says:

      You are right, we are not left behind in cheating, stealing, murdering, lying, killing, breaking the promise, betraying and deceiving each other. and that is the reason Allah’s punishments are on us in the form of hunger and fear, which will not stop unless we correct ourselves.

  10. Farrukh Ahmed says:

    I think we need technology to stop current drones attacks in our country. It can be done by blocking radio frequency on which these drones operate.

    Thank you.

    jis khet sy dehkan ko rozi nahi muyaser
    os khet k khosha e gandam ko jala do

    aiy tahir lahoti os rizaq sy moat achi
    jis rikaz sy aati ho parwaz main kotai..

    جس کھیت سے دہقاں کو روزی نہیں میسر
    اس کھیت کے خوشہ گندم کو جلا دو۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔

    اے طائر لاہوتی اس رزق سے موت اچھی
    جس رزق سے آتی ہو پرواز میں کوتائی

  13. S.M. Zahid says:

    I completely agree with technical, but this is very unfortunate. Allah says Wa makaroo Wa Makarallah, Wallaho Khair-ul-makayreen. The country which was made in the name of La Ilaha Illalah, and people start playing and doing maker with Allah. So definitely Allah will win. What happen to USSR – Russia is a history now. May Allah save us that it may not repeat here. What are going to do even we have drone technology or what is the use of nuclear technology, when we are unable to provide food, shelter, security, health, education and justice to our people. If not WE then wait for Allah’s decision.

  14. Bilal says:

    Pakistan govt not require drones, they need free drones from America.
    If Pakistan made F-16, JF-17 thunder then what is drone a dumb technology.
    Even it is a such dumb technology can also made by UET students.

  15. saqib says:

    Pakistan zindabaab
    yeh technology kuch to made in pak hai or kuch italy or pak ki mushtarika,………………wah indian dogs will shocked

  16. Iftikhar ahmad says:

    Hi Pakistan, I’m really happy when I see the efforts of young Pakistani scientist who delivered tremendous contributions to defense jobs.I hope tht in future also the pak made amaizing contributions will be delevered for a good hope.
