Government Seeks To Establish Aerospace Manufacturing Ecosystem
India is working towards producing its first domestically manufactured civilian aircraft within the next two years, according to Civil Aviation Minister K. Rammohan Naidu. The government is seeking to establish a complete aerospace manufacturing ecosystem in the country, leveraging its rapidly expanding aviation market and existing aerospace supply chain. With Indian airlines having over 1,600 aircraft on order, involving investments of around $100 billion, the potential demand for domestically produced aircraft is substantial. This initiative was reported by Aviation India.
