Moscow. Russia and India are implementing joint projects for all branches of the armed forces with a degree of cooperation between enterprises of the two countries that is unique for the global market. They are being implemented on the basis of a long-term program of military-technical cooperation (M-TEC) and are fully consistent with the Make in India program.

Rosoboronexport is actively working with large industrial companies of India and always appreciates the highest level of their expertise.

A remarkable example of large-scale cooperation in the aerospace sector is the program of the licensed production in India jointly with HAL of Su-30MKI fighter jets. The program resulted in the introduction into the Indian Air Force (IAF) of an aircraft, which became a benchmark for a highly effective heavy multirole fighter jet. Besides, the licensed production of turbofan engines for Su-30MKI jets was launched in India.

Rosoboronexport expects further expansion of cooperation with India in the aerospace domain and is ready to offer the brand-new products and technological solutions of the Russian industry.

At Aero India 2021 Rosoboronexport will present models of the Su-57E fifth generation fighter jet, the Su-35 multirole fighter jet, the Il-78MK-90A tanker aircraft, the Ka-226 light multipurpose helicopter, the Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft gun-missile system, Typhoon protected vehicles and other products.
