Tejas Fighter Jet In India
The Indian Air Force (IAF) is set to receive its first domestically-produced combat aircraft with beyond-visual range strike capabilities next February, the defence ministry said on Friday. The delivery of Tejas LCA-Mk-1A aircraft by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) is expected to begin in February 2024, the ministry said in a statement, as it marked the seventh anniversary of the induction of the made-in-India fighter jet. The 83 LCA Mk-1A aircraft, contracted by the defence ministry in 2021 at a price of Rs 47,000 crore, will also feature an active electronically steered radar, an updated electronic warfare suite and a beyond-visual range missile system.
