Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam 🇮🇳

He spent much of his career in national research organisations working on rocketry and missile development, and he held senior scientific and advisory positions in the defence research establishment. He died in 2015, and his professional record continues to be cited across the Indian defence sector.

Defence Street indexes people as well as organisations because the sector is often navigated through the figures who shaped its programmes. This profile keeps to publicly established professional matters, and it links out to the organisations he was associated with during his career.
