“India Today” reported on April 21 that India is using the airborne oxygen generation technology on the self-produced light fighter “Glory” to alleviate the severe oxygen shortage caused by the new crown epidemic.
Indian Defense Minister Rajnath Singh held a review meeting with senior officials of the Ministry of Defense via video on Tuesday. The participants included the Chief of Defense Staff, the Commanders in Chief of the Army and Navy and their secretaries.

Singh called on the armed forces to maintain close contact with the state government, ready to provide them with any assistance at any time.
According to a statement issued by the Ministry of National Defense, the technology of the “Glorious” warfare oxygen equipment can achieve an oxygen production speed of 1,000 liters per minute. The Uttar Pradesh government has ordered five equipment using this technology.
During the meeting, the chairman of the Indian National Defense Research Organization, Dr. Thaxi Shi Ledi, said that the organization can provide more oxygen generators to meet the needs of the hospital.
The article said that in order to make up for the large shortage of oxygen cylinders, DRDO has developed a blood oxygen saturation supplementary oxygen supply system, which can be used by soldiers stationed in extremely high altitude areas and can also help patients with new crowns.
Inferior performance of the brilliant fighter
“In the current COVID-19 pandemic, this type of automatic supply system will become a boon for patients.” India’s Ministry of Defense said in a statement.
The statement also said that the system was developed by DRDO’s National Defense Bioengineering and Electromedicine Laboratory (DEBEL) in Bangalore. It can provide oxygen based on the blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) level to prevent patients from falling into a hypoxic state.

Dr. Ledi further stated that soldiers in extreme high-altitude areas face insufficient blood oxygen saturation similar to those of patients with new crowns.
