Several trusted media outlets, including News18, are reporting that India is developing its own long-range bomber. According to the report, this bomber will be capable of flying up to 12,000 kilometers without refueling, which means it can travel from India to New York in a single flight. The bomber will be equipped to carry BrahMos-NG missiles, short-range ballistic missiles, and anti-radiation weapons. The project is being developed by DRDO, HAL, and the Aircraft Development Agency, with planned technology collaboration from Russia and France. As per the report, the first prototype of the bomber is expected to be ready between 2032 and 2035.
