The Indian Air Force (IAF) has started the process to buy a Medium Transport Aircraft (MTA), which will be made in India as part of the “Make in India” programme.
The IAF said on Friday that the MTA could carry between 18 and 30 tonnes of cargo and would be used in different ways as a transport plane.
India’s defence industry is going through a huge change thanks to the ambitious “Make in India” programme.
To meet the modernization needs of the Indian armed forces, there are several projects going on right now to make missiles, field guns, tanks, aircraft carriers, drones, fighter planes, tanks, and helicopters in India.
We are waiting for more information.
