For the first time, a full-scale model of India’s fifth-generation fighter jet will be exhibited at the upcoming Aero India.
The AMCA 1:1 model will be located at the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) India Pavilion.
The AMCA is designed and developed by the Aviation Development Agency, with HAL becoming the production agency. The Cabinet Committee on Security has approved the design and development project. The first prototype of the aircraft is expected to be deployed in the coming years.
HAL is looking forward to its mild utility helicopter (LUH) as its pavilion’s main attraction, along with functional engineering demonstrators of the fighting aviation team (CATS) warriors at Aero India 2025 in the future.
