Uttar Pradesh has signed more than 150 defence manufacturing deals worth ₹25,000 crore, focusing on boosting India's defence production and exports. The projects, part of the UP Defence Industrial Corridor, will create 40,000 jobs across six districts. With notable companies like Adani Defence and BrahMos Aerospace involved, the initiative aims to propel the state's industrial value chain and support India's self-reliance in defence. Significant milestones include the delivery of AK-203 rifles and the development of a BrahMos missile plant.
