The Indian Army has taken a major step to address the challenges of modern warfare. In January 2026, the Army formed new special forces battalions called "Bhairav," comprising over 100,000 trained drone operators. It is one of the world's largest drone-focused combat units, designed to counter hybrid and multi-domain threats.
The Bhairav ​​battalions will showcase their strength for the first time at the Army Day Parade in Jaipur on January 15, 2026. This symbolizes India's technological self-reliance and future-ready army. Experts believe that the Bhairav ​​Force will prove to be a nightmare for enemies, as India now leads globally in drone warfare.
