Paras Anti Drone Technologies Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of Paras Defence and Space Technologies Ltd, has entered into an agreement with France-based CERBAIR for the potential export of up to 30 CHIMERA 200 counter-unmanned aerial system (UAS) units. The deal is valued at approximately INR 220 million (EUR 2.2 million).

The CHIMERA 200 system is designed for rapid deployment and can detect and neutralize drone threats operating across the 400 MHz to 6 GHz frequency range. It supports up to five simultaneous frequency bands and features both omnidirectional and directional modes. The system offers a low false alarm rate and can be integrated with command systems and weapons platforms. CERBAIR has requested enhancements to power output and modulation capabilities to align with evolving European security needs.

“Our customers are seeking demonstrations and deliveries, signalling a strong market fit. By boosting the neutralization power output with agile modulations to address the newest drone anti-neutralization innovations, we can ensure this solution rapidly becomes a major success,” said Lucas Le Bell, President of CERBAIR.

“Our collaboration with CERBAIR is proof of India’s growing stature as a trusted source of advanced anti-drone technologies. We’re committed to delivering field-tested solutions that meet the world’s highest standards and strengthen India’s position as a global defence manufacturing hub,” stated Ashutosh Baheti, Chief Executive Officer of Paras Anti Drone Technologies.

According to the company, the CHIMERA 200 system has already been deployed across critical infrastructure in India and is being positioned for expanded international sales through 2026.

Paras Defence and Space Technologies Ltd operates manufacturing facilities across India and supplies defence solutions to clients in the military, homeland security, and infrastructure sectors.
