India's NavIC satellite system, crucial for military and civilian use, currently has only three operational satellites. This shortfall impacts its ability to provide accurate positioning and navigation services. The system's reliability issues stemmed from imported atomic clocks, now being replaced by indigenous ones. Upcoming launches aim to restore the full constellation's functionality. This indigenous capability is vital for India's strategic autonomy and modernization efforts.
