For the first time India will display defence equipment at an international event, at the International Aerospace and Defence Exhibition (ADEX-2013) exhibition, schedule to be held at Kintex, Seoul, South Korea.

The products developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and its partners, which would include state-of-the-art weapon systems, platforms, sensors, communication systems and equipment, will be displayed at ADEX-2013, to be held from 29 October to 3 November 2013, in Seoul.

DRDO, along with its production partners will prominently display India's strength and expertise in design, development and production of such items at the expo, where more than 30 countries are expected to participate.

DRDO will be displaying indigenously developed systems, including the 'Akash' air defence system, 'Tejas' light combat aircraft and its variants, expandable high speed aerial target 'Abhyas', airborne early warning and control system (AEW&C), advanced radars, sonars and communication systems among others.

A large number of products developed by DRDO and Indian industry, including those being displayed at ADEX-2013, have immense export potential, an official release said today.

DRDO has found acceptance for its products after the launch of its explosive detection kit (EDK) in the US in August 2013.

The technology for the EDK, developed by DRDO and already being produced in India, has already been transferred to a US firm.

DRDO's participation in the event will go a long way in promoting international collaboration and generating fruitful interactions with leading global leaders from industry and Defence R&D institution especially those from South Korea, the release said.
