There was a sage named Agnivesha who was the former disciple of Drona's father, Bharadwaja. Agnivesha studied the use of weapons from the sage, Agastya, and passed his knowledge to Drona and Drupada. Many years later, Drona heard that the sage Parashurama was donating his wealth. However, by the time Drona reached Parashurama's hermitage in the Mahendra Mountain, the latter had already given away all his wealth. He had only his body and his weapons to give away. Drona chose to have Parashurama's weapons and acquired the knowledge of weapons from the sage. Thus, Drona was able to become a renowned warrior and an instructor of archery and other weapons.[5]
Dhritarashtra approved the demonstration of weapon-game by the princes. An arena was prepared. Drona entered the arena. Drona worshiped the gods as a form of preparatory rites. Then he invited the Brahmins to bless his disciples. After that the students gave gold, precious stones, clothes and other valuables to the teacher. The teacher blessed him. With this the demonstration started. Bhima and Duryodhana showed their skills by fighting with each other. The mock fight turned into a serious fight. Drona sent Ashwatthama to stop the fight because seeing this the citizens may get triggered by their fight.[12] Then, Arjuna entered the hall with much appreciation and praises from the citizen of Hastinapura. He showed various archery skills to the people. Drona impressed by his beloved student Arjuna's skills then declared that Arjuna is the greatest archer in the world. Then, Karna gatecrashed and entered the arena and surpassed everyone's expectations and performances with the permission of Drona. He then challenged Arjuna for a duel and Kripa demanded that Karna state his lineage. Karna could not answer as he does not know who are his real parents. Duryodhana then made Karna the king of Anga. Then sunset occurred and the duel of Karna and Arjuna was stopped.[13]
After Drona completed the formal training of the Kuru princes, he demanded that they invade Panchala and bring him Draupada as their Gurudakshina. Arjuna succeeds in defeating Drupada and brings the captured king to Drona. Drona reminds Drupada about their days of friendship and his false promise before taking away half of the Panchala kingdom.[14] Drona would make Ashwatthama the king of the annexed half of the Panchala kingdom. This action would lead Drupada to perform a sacrificial yagna in order to beget a son who would kill Drona. The sages Upayaja and Yaja helped him to beget such a son Dhrishtadyumna. The sacrificial fire also yielded a daughter, Draupadi.[15]
On the 13th day of the war, Drona formed the Chakravyuha strategy to capture Yudhishtira, knowing that only Arjuna and Krishna would know how to penetrate it. The Trigartas were distracting Arjuna and Krishna into another part of the battlefield, allowing the main Kaurava army to surge through the Pandava ranks.
Unknown to many, Arjuna's young son Abhimanyu had the knowledge to penetrate the formation but did not know the way out. At the request of Yudhishthira, Abhimanyu agreed to lead the way for the Pandava army and was able to penetrate the formation. However, he was trapped when Jayadratha, the King of Sindhu, held the Pandava warriors who were following him, at bay. Abhimanyu did not know how to get out of the Chakravyuha, but embarked upon an all-out attack on the Kaurava army, killing tens of thousands of warriors single-handedly. Drona is impressed with Abhimanyu and praises him endlessly, earning the ire of Duryodhana. With his army facing decimation and spurred on by Duryodhana's criticisms, Drona asked the Kaurava warriors to simultaneously attack Abhimanyu, to strike down his horses and his charioteer and to disable his chariot from different angles. Left without support, Abhimanyu began fighting from the ground. Exhausted after his long and prodigious feats, Abhimanyu was eventually killed.
The devious murder of his son enraged Arjuna, who swore to kill Jayadratha the next day or immolate himself. Drona constructed 3 combined vyuhas to protect Jayadratha, first was the Shakata vyuha then was Padma Vyuha and last was the Srigantaka vyuha and at its rear was Jayadratha and stood at the head of the box formation or Shakata vyuha

Lately, India has been receiving a lot of threats in the form of drones. Several drones have been captured by the Indian Army that were carrying payloads in the form of weapons like AK 47 and other military-grade equipment.
Reducing the number of forms required from 25 to 5, type of fees from 72 to 4, yellow zones from 45 Km to 12 km surrounding airport perimeter, and abolishing several approvals earlier required for R&D and prototype drones, The Drone Rules, 2021 has been drafted on the premise of trust, self-certification and non-intrusive monitoring, says the ministry of civil aviation.
The Drone Rules, 2021 (August 26, 2021) suggests that the interactive map on the Digital Sky platform will be readied in the next 30 days. Similarly, it states that the central government may, (within 60 days of the date of publication of these rules) publish a policy framework in respect of the Unmanned Aircraft System Traffic Management System on the digital sky platform.
Drone-in-a-box is an emerging form of autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology that uses drones deployed from and returning to self-contained landing boxes. Traditional unmanned aerial vehicles require humans and some ground controllers to operate. In contrast, the drone box systems operate autonomously from a box that also serves as a landing pad and charging base.
For instance, Colena Ltd. introduced drones as a box solution for the construction and AEC sectors. These systems have the potential to run automated flights that allow for continuous data collection 24 hours a day. This provides a useful service to the construction sector as real-time information is fed into the progress monitoring system. Hence, an on-site drone-in-a-box reduces the need for site visits by allowing remote data monitoring.
By end-use industry, the market is categorized into defense, construction & mining, oil & gas, homeland security, medical services, transportation & logistics, event management, and others. Construction & mining segment holds the highest market share and is estimated to grow moderately. Rising applications of DiaB for resource management and energy mapping drives the growth of this segment. For instance, In October 2022, DroneDeploy, Inc., finalized an agreement to acquire StructionSite, a prominent provider of ground reality capture within the construction industry. This strategic move is designed to streamline accessibility for customers in the energy, construction, and other sectors, facilitating the utilization of ground robots, aerial drones, and portable 360-degree cameras for exploration at their project sites. The objective of this acquisition is to integrate two key capture solutions, airborne and ground-based, onto a unified platform, providing a seamless and comprehensive approach to reality capture for diverse industries.The defense segment is estimated to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. The increasing demand for autonomous drones in border surveillance drives segmental growth. For instance, in April 2022, the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory awarded ASYLON INC a contract to provide ISR, surveillance, and perimeter security. This includes exploring using available water-based resources in the operating environment to generate power and recharge autonomous platforms for longer operational time.
