In Bengaluru for Aero India 2021, which his ministry has billed as “Asia’s most prestigious air show”, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday inaugurated a second production line at Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) that will boost its capacity to build the Tejas light combat aircraft (LCA). With HAL currently discharging an order for 20 Tejas Mark 1 fighters and poised to sign a Rs 45,000 crore contract with the Indian Air Force (IAF) to build 83 Tejas Mark 1A fighters, the new production line doubles HAL’s capacity from eight to 16 Tejas fighters each year. “HAL’s new LCA facility is an example of how Aatmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India) is shaping [up] and HAL deserves the largest indigenous order of 83 LCA Mark IA… The fighter is superior in many ways when compared to others fighters in its category besides being cost effective,” said the defence minister.
