Indian Navy Hermes 900 (Drishti-10) Delivered

Adani Defence & Aerospace delivered the second Drishti-10 Starliner medium-altitude long-endurance drone to the Indian Navy on 4 December 2024, completing the two-aircraft naval order placed under emergency procurement in 2023. The Drishti-10 is the Indian-built version of Elbit's Hermes 900 and is flown from the Naval Air Enclave at Porbandar in Gujarat for surveillance over the Arabian Sea. This airframe was lost off Porbandar on 14 January 2025 while still being flown by the manufacturer in pre-acceptance trials, according to ThePrint, and was replaced.
