Indian Military Organization To Develop Its Own OS

Posted by timothy on from the there-are-drawbacks-to-this dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Several newspapers have reported that DRDO (the defence R&D organization of the Indian military) is planning to create an OS.

At least one of the linked articles says the new OS, though home-grown, would run Windows software.
