About Project Nirghosh

Project Nirghosh is Bangladesh's pioneering initiative to develop low-cost stealth drone technology for next-generation defense applications.

Our Mission

We aim to design, develop, and manufacture stealth drone prototypes that combine advanced technology with local production capabilities. Our mission is to enhance Bangladesh's technological self-reliance in defense and create a foundation for future aerospace innovation.

What Inspired Us

The rapid advancement of 5th-generation drone technology globally has created both opportunities and challenges for developing nations. Project Nirghosh was born from the recognition that Bangladesh needs to develop indigenous capabilities in this critical technology area.

Inspired by successful drone programs in other countries and the growing importance of unmanned systems in modern defense, we set out to create a prototype that would be:

  • Affordable to produce locally
  • Incorporate stealth features to reduce detectability
  • Capable of autonomous operation
  • Adaptable to various mission profiles
  • Serve as a technology demonstrator for future development

Our Goals

Stealth Capability

Develop airframes and materials that minimize radar, infrared, and acoustic signatures.

Autonomous Systems

Create reliable navigation and control systems that can operate without constant human input.

Local Production

Design with locally available materials and manufacturing capabilities in mind.

Knowledge Transfer

Build expertise in aerospace engineering and advanced manufacturing within Bangladesh.

Why It Matters for Bangladesh

Bangladesh's strategic position in South Asia and its growing economy make technological self-reliance in defense a national priority. Project Nirghosh contributes to this goal by:

  • Reducing dependence on imported defense technology
  • Creating high-skilled jobs in aerospace and electronics
  • Developing dual-use technologies with civilian applications
  • Establishing Bangladesh as an innovator in drone technology
  • Building a foundation for a broader aerospace industry

Our Approach

We follow an iterative, prototype-driven development process that allows us to test concepts quickly and learn from each iteration. Our team combines theoretical knowledge with practical engineering to overcome challenges and find innovative solutions.

By leveraging open-source technologies where appropriate and developing proprietary solutions where necessary, we maintain a balance between innovation and practicality.
