DRDO delivers 46-meter Modular Bridge to Indian Army, know details

Описание: In a major boost to indigenisation of defence equipment under ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’, Indian Army got a new Modular Bridge. The 46-meter Modular Bridge designed and developed by the DRDO was delivered to Indian Army in a ceremony held in Delhi on Feb 27. In collaboration with Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO), the Modular Bridge was produced by Larsen & Toubro (L&T).
The contract for the procurement of 41 Modular Bridges was signed with L&T on February 08, 2023 at an estimated cost of over Rs 2,585 crore. Each set of Modular Bridge consists of seven carrier vehicles based on 8x8 Heavy Mobility Vehicles and two launcher vehicles based on 10x10 Heavy Mobility Vehicles. Each set is capable of mechanically launching a single span fully decked 46-meter assault bridge.
The bridge can be employed over various types of obstacles like canals and ditches with quick launching and retrieval capabilities. The equipment is highly mobile, versatile, rugged and capable of keeping pace with wheeled and tracked mechanized vehicles. The modular bridges will replace the manually-­launched Medium Girder Bridges (MGB) that are currently being used in the Indian Army.
