Correct Answer Explanation

SAKSHAM (Situational Awareness for Kinetic Soft and Hard Kill Assets Management) is an indigenous Counter-Unmanned Aerial System (CUAS) being procured by the Indian Army. It is a command and control system designed to detect, track, identify, and neutralize hostile drones in real time, ensuring airspace security within the Tactical Battlefield Space.

Incorrect Options Analysis
  • Border surveillance: While drones can be used for surveillance, SAKSHAM's primary purpose is counter-drone, not general border surveillance.
  • Naval communication: This option is irrelevant as SAKSHAM is a system for drone defense, not communication.
  • Artillery management: This option is irrelevant as SAKSHAM is designed for drone defense, not artillery management.

सही उत्तर स्पष्टीकरण

SAKSHAM (Situational Awareness for Kinetic Soft and Hard Kill Assets Management) भारतीय सेना द्वारा प्राप्त एक स्वदेशी Counter-Unmanned Aerial System (CUAS) है। यह एक Command and control system है जिसे Tactical Battlefield Space के भीतर Airspace security सुनिश्चित करते हुए, hostile drones का Real-time में पता लगाने, ट्रैक करने, पहचानने और उन्हें बेअसर करने के लिए डिज़ाइन किया गया है।

गलत विकल्पों का विश्लेषण
  • सीमा निगरानी (Border surveillance): ड्रोन का उपयोग निगरानी के लिए किया जा सकता है, लेकिन SAKSHAM का प्राथमिक उद्देश्य Counter-drone है, न कि सामान्य Border surveillance।
  • नौसैनिक संचार (Naval communication): यह विकल्प अप्रासंगिक है, क्योंकि SAKSHAM ड्रोन सुरक्षा के लिए एक प्रणाली है, संचार के लिए नहीं।
  • तोपखाना प्रबंधन (Artillery management): यह विकल्प अप्रासंगिक है, क्योंकि SAKSHAM को ड्रोन सुरक्षा के लिए डिज़ाइन किया गया है, न कि Artillery management के लिए।
