India achieved a major defence manufacturing milestone as the first Made-in-India Airbus C-295 military transport aircraft successfully completed its maiden test flight from the Tata-Airbus Final Assembly Line in Vadodara, Gujarat, on Wednesday. The aircraft performed key post-production flight evaluations, clearing the way for its delivery to the Indian Air Force later this year. The IAF is acquiring 56 C-295 aircraft under a ₹21,935-crore deal, with 40 to be assembled in India by Tata Advanced Systems and Airbus. #bongaigaonlive #bongaigaon #aircraft #madeinindia #c295
