New Delhi. Airbus has lined up a high-octane show at Wings India 2026, with a comprehensive display of fixed-wing and rotary platforms that are redefining the future of Indian aviation. The company will also showcase an immersive helicopter simulator and its bouquet of aerospace services at the premier Indian airshow at Hyderabad’s Begumpet Airport from January 28 to 31, 2026.
On static display, visitors can get up close with the heavy hitters of the Airbus stable, including the A321neo, the world’s best-selling large single-aisle aircraft, and the A220, a proven game changer for domestic and regional international connectivity. These will be joined by the H160 helicopter that is redefining helicopter aviation in India and the H125, the world’s most-preferred single-engine and multi-mission workhorse that will now be assembled in India in Vemagal, Karnataka.
At Stand 11 in Hall A, Airbus will highlight its latest fleet additions and future-ready technology through scale models of the twin-engine H145 and the groundbreaking single aisle aircraft, the A321XLR. Following its landmark Indian debut earlier this month, the A321XLR stands as the “route opener” capable of flying routes traditionally considered wide body routes. The centre-piece of the stand will be the H125 Virtual Reality Simulator. This immersive, new-generation device revolutionises pilot training by providing advanced training solutions that combine the benefits of actual flight and the safety of simulation tools.
“India is a market and an industrial base that is significant for Airbus’ success. Our presence at Wings India 2026 reflects the gamut of our activities here — from the ‘Make in India’ assembly lines for helicopters and military transporters to our digital and engineering hubs in Bengaluru. Whether it is deploying world-class training centers for pilots or sourcing $1.5 billion in components and services annually from Indian suppliers, we are fully invested in building a holistic aerospace ecosystem here in this country,” said Jürgen Westermeier, President & Managing Director, Airbus India & South Asia.
Beyond the hardware, Airbus will showcase a suite of lifecycle services engineered to streamline aircraft operations and peak fleet performance. Visitors can also engage with the Airbus decarbonisation roadmap, a deep dive into how Sustainable Aviation Fuel can power the future of flight.
On the public days, Airbus will host a ‘Meet-and-Greet’ recruitment event at its stand. Company executives will meet candidates for prospective positions in the digital and engineering streams. The company will be looking for specific skill sets, including in Big Data, IoT, avionics software and airframe engineering.
