This MoU signals Bharat Forge’s commitment to future-ready defence solutions by leveraging international partnerships and aligning with Indian military goals. The success of the AAROK UAV project could position the company as a major UAV manufacturer within India’s aerospace landscape, potentially boosting investor sentiment and positively reflecting on the Bharat Forge share price.
