Introduction:
In
these modern days, Technology plays a major role. Our everyday life is directly
or indirectly interconnected to this Technology only. And nowadays technology
is seen in Every place. Now we will see How Technology changes the entire Army
and Defence. Now we will see what’s the Technology brings to us.
- 3d Reality headsets.
- Robots joining human squads.
- missiles got more powerful and precise.
- Aircrafts got stronger.
- Tanks are getting more powerful.
And
much more.
So
To make this possible, we need a huge number of engineers.
Yes,
among the other engineers, Mechanical Engineers have more scope in this field.
Role Of Mechanical Engineers In Army:
There are many roles to the mechanical Engineers in the army. Their first task is to provide mobility to own forces by constructing bridges, tracks, removable obstacles, making safe passages through enemy minefields, and so on.
And
they also needed to develop prototypes and new designs. Engineering plays an
important role in the day to day life including everything even the defence sector. In the defense sector being an engineer, you will also be a defence person.
Mechanical
Engineer, aeronautical engineer, electrical n also electronics are preferred
the most and then other respective branches but these play a big role in
defence.
