    The Modern Battlefield Is Your City| What You Need to Know | Indrajaal CEO, Kiran Raju | ZP 003

    What happens when a childhood fascination with computers turns into a career building machines for the modern battlefield? In this episode of Zero Protocol, we sit down with the founder and CEO of Indrajaal, Mr. Kiran Raju, to trace the journey that led him from Hyderabad and a childhood spent around computers and video games, to Purdue, Carnegie Mellon, robotics, defence construction, and eventually the world of autonomous systems and counter-drone technology. We go deep into the mind of a man who's spent two decades chasing one obsession: closing the gap between humans and machines. From Purdue to Carnegie Mellon's DARPA Grand Challenge lab, from building India's highest-altitude military shelter to founding one of the world's most advanced autonomous airspace infrastructure companies, Kiran walks us through it all. This is a rare, unfiltered look at what it actually takes to defend a nation in the age of drones, from a founder who was building autonomous systems before the world had a word for them. __________ 00:00:00 — How Drones Are Changing Warfare 00:03:30 — The Rise of Autonomous Drones 00:07:07 — Why Small Drones Are So Hard to Detect 00:09:30 — The Economics of Counter-Drone Warfare 00:11:17 — Where His Journey Began 00:16:00 — From Hyderabad to America 00:21:30 — The Journey Back to India 00:25:40 — How Indrajaal Was Born 00:29:20 — Building a Counter-Drone System 00:34:30 — India's Need for a Unified Defense Network 00:36:40 — The Personal Cost of Building Indrajaal 00:39:40 — The Future of Autonomous Warfare 00:41:10 — India's Defense Future & Rapid Fire ___________ About Zero Protocol Zero Protocol hosts long-form conversations about ambition, identity and inner architecture of a human life.

    Lt. Gen. A. Arun| What the Indian Army Teaches About Becoming Who You're Capable Of

    Lt. Gen. A. Arun served nearly four decades in the Indian Army after being commissioned into the Grenadiers Regiment in 1982. From the discipline of NDA and IMA to leading counter-terrorism operations with the Rashtriya Rifles in Kashmir, his journey spans war, strategy, leadership, and sacrifice. In this episode of Zero Protocol, he unpacks what truly shapes an Army officer, the psychology of combat, PTSD, the unseen emotional weight of service, and the realities of military life beyond the uniform. The conversation expands into India’s strategic future — Agniveer, national security, energy security, the Great Nicobar project, and India’s evolving relationships with China, Pakistan, Iran, and Israel.
