Indra & TASL Commission India’s First Indigenous 3D Air Surveillance Radar ‘Lanza-N’ on INS Mysore.

Science and Technology

On 10 September 2025, Indra (Spain) and Tata Advanced Systems Limited (TASL) successfully delivered and commissioned Lanza-N, India’s first indigenous Three-Dimension Air Surveillance Radar (3D-ASR), into the Indian Navy on INS Mysore. This marks the radar’s first deployment outside Spain.


      - The Lanza-N radar enhances India’s long-range air defence and anti-missile capabilities by detecting multiple threats, including drones, supersonic aircraft, naval platforms, and anti-radiation missiles.

      - A 2020 contract under the Technology Transfer Programme (TTP) ensures delivery of 23 naval radars by 2029, with Indra supplying 3 and TASL manufacturing 20 at its Karnataka facility.

      - TASL has established a dedicated radar assembly, integration, and testing facility in Karnataka to support production and future naval deployments.

Main Point :-   (i) Lanza-N provides 3D detection by measuring distance, direction, and altitude, and has a range of up to 256 nautical miles (~474 km) for comprehensive surveillance.

      (ii) The radar has been customised for Indian conditions, capable of operating under extreme heat and high humidity, ensuring reliability in diverse environments.

(iii) It is fully integrated with onboard naval systems and has passed rigorous trials across naval and aerial platforms, ensuring combat readiness.
