EMISAT, launched on 1 April 2019, is an Indian reconnaissance satellite^[2] under Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) project Kautilya^[3] which is a package that provides space-based electronic signal intelligence or ELINT. The spacecraft helps in improving the situational awareness of the Indian Armed Forces as it will provide information and location of enemy radars.^[4] The ELINT payload is developed by Defence Electronics Research Laboratory (DLRL), while augmented Indian Mini Satellite-2 (IMS-2) platform is provided by Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).^[5] The capabilities of the Kautilya package is highly classified. It monitors radio signals to determine the location and source of all transmission.^[6]
