Weapon Technology: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going on an important visit to five countries from 2 to 9 July 2025 which includes Ghana, Trinidad & Tobago, Argentina, Brazil and Namibia. This seizure is not only important for strengthening diplomatic and economic relations but will also explore the possibilities of cooperation in the field of defense and arms technology. Come, let’s take a look at the military and weapon technology of these countries and know what fatal weapons they have.
Ghana: military capacity and limited arms technology
Ghana, a country of West Africa, is not as famous for its military power as for its gold production. Ghana’s army, called Ghana Armed Forces, mainly focuses on internal security and regional peace missions. Ghana’s military technology is relatively limited and is dependent on imported weapons. They have a shortage of modern tanks or missile systems but use small weapons such as assault rifles (AK-47 and its variants) and armored vehicles. Ghana has shown interest in drone technology in recent years but she has the lowest capacity to manufacture indigenous weapons. PM Modi’s visit may be an opportunity to increase defense cooperation with Ghana, especially in cyber security and drone technology.
Trinidad & Tobago: Small but strategic army
The military power of the Caribbean country Trinidad and Tobago is also limited which mainly focuses on coast guard and internal security. His army depends on Trinidad and Tobago Defense Force, small arms and light armored vehicles. They do not have any advanced missile systems or nuclear weapons. However, they have patrol boats and light helicopters for marine security. He has old cultural and diplomatic relations with India and can open new routes to the supply of PM Modi’s travel defense equipment, such as patrol ships or monitoring drones.
Argentina: Medium level military technology
Argentina’s military power is considered moderately in South America. Argentina Armed Forces have old but effective weapons including tanks (TAM -Tanque Argentino Mediano), naval ship and Mirage fighter jets purchased from France. Their Navy has diesel-electric submarines, such as TR-1700 classes. However, Argentina’s defense budget is limited due to which modernization has been slow. In recent years, he has started investing in drones and cyber war techniques. Defense cooperation with India, especially indigenous weapons such as BrahMos missiles, can be a topic of future discussion.
Brazil: South America’s military superpower
Brazil is South America’s largest military power and its army is capable of maintaining regional impact. Brazil’s military technology includes advanced weapons such as embrewers A-29 Super Bunetan fighter aircraft, Astros II Multiple Rocket Launcher System and Scorpion-class submarines. Brazil has recently launched a nuclear-managed submarine program which will further strengthen it as a regional power. Defense cooperation between India and Brazil already exists, especially in missiles and aviation techniques. PM Modi’s visit can deepen this cooperation, especially for the export of indigenous weapons such as Akash missile and D4 anti-drain system.
Namibia: Limited but strategic military capacity
Namibia’s military power is small, but it is active in regional peace missions. Namibia Defense Force is mainly dependent on light weapons, such as assault rifles and armored personnel carrier (APCs). They have some old Russian-origin tanks (T-55) and Chinese-made naval patrol ships. Namibia has shown interest in drone and monitoring equipment in recent years. Namibia’s nuclear cooperation with India is notable and PM Modi’s visit can promote defense equipment supply and training programs.
