Indian defence firm IG Defence signs a memorandum of understanding with Oman's MSA Global LLC to explore co-development of defence capabilities. The proposed work centers on advanced drone technologies and counter-drone or air-defence related systems.

The outlets describe the arrangement as part of IG Defence’s broader push beyond domestic supply, linking Indian R&D and engineering with Omani industrial capacity. One report frames the deal around Gulf security needs—especially the perceived urgency for counter-drone and air-defence solutions—while the other focuses primarily on the existence and scope of the MoU for co-development and exploration of related systems. Both accounts emphasize collaboration and potential localisation in Oman, rather than immediate delivery of specific platforms.
