The C-295 Aircraft Manufacturing Facility’s foundation stone was recently laid by the Prime Minister of India at Vadodara, Gujarat. The proposed facility will be the nation’s first private aircraft manufacturing facility. The Indian Air Force will use this facility to produce 40 C-295 aircraft thanks to a partnership between Tata Advanced Systems Limited and Airbus Defence and Space, Spain. The facility will be a crucial step in realising Aatmanirbharta in the defence industry and will also assist in maximising the potential of the private players.
