The government has taken a huge step towards self-reliance in defense matters. The Defense Ministry has issued a tender worth Rs 65 thousand crore to the Indian public sector company Hindustan Aeronautics Limited. Under this, 97 LCA Mark 1A fighter jets will be purchased from HAL. This could be the largest order placed by the Government of India for indigenous military hardware.

LCA Mark 1A aircraft will replace MiG fighter jets

The Defense Ministry has given HAL three months to respond to the tender. If this deal is done, then the Indian Air Force’s fighter jets like MiG-21, MiG-23 and MiG-27 will be replaced by Indian-made LCA Mark 1A fighter jets, which will soon be retired from the Air Force. This is a very important step towards promoting indigenous weapons. This will also benefit the business of small and middle class companies in the defense sector.

Prime Minister Modi is continuously promoting HAL and that is why HAL is getting deals to manufacture all types of indigenous fighter jets, helicopters and engines. Additionally, HAL is expected to close deals to purchase more than 200 LCA Mark 2s and a comparable quantity of fifth-generation Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft.

The Air Force has already placed an order for 83 LCA Mark 1A fighter jets to HL, under which the first fighter jet will be delivered to the Air Force in a few weeks. LCA Mark 1A is the modernized version of Tejas aircraft. Indian Air Force Chief Air Chief Marshal VR Chaudhari had given information for the first time in Spain about the deal of 97 LCA Mark 1A fighter jets.

Recently, the Air Force Chief had also held a review meeting regarding the program of indigenous fighter jets, in which HAL officials also participated.

POWER CORRIDORS

Former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu commended Power Corridors as a commendable news magazine, affirming that it not only upholds Media Dharma but also fulfills its societal obligations. Power Corridors, as its name implies, delves into realpolitik—examining the essence of influential circles, unraveling the intricacies of political maneuvers, and exploring the pulse of the state’s affairs. However, it transcends mere power dynamics, encompassing a broader spectrum of issues beyond the confines of Delhi’s elite circles.

For PC, which is published by the Interactive Forum on Indian Economy, not only highlights the issues of the day but also throws up what ought to be the subjects that the country should be debating about. It reports about the plans, strategies, and agendas of politicians and others; it also sets the agenda for the nation.
