The special thing is that such aircraft were not made in the country till now. The total cost of this project is Rs 21,935 crore. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate this plant in Vadodara on Sunday.
The deal was signed with Airbus in 2021

In this, there was a deal to buy C-295 aircraft instead of the old Avro-748. 56 aircraft were requisitioned. Of these, 16 will come from Spain and the remaining 40 will be made in Vadodara, Gujarat.
A Defense Ministry official said that these aircraft will be completely indigenous. Between September 2023 and August 2025, 16 aircraft will be handed over in ready condition. The indigenously made aircraft will be supplied from 2026 to 2031.
Characteristics of the aircraft
PM Modi has been constantly talking about making the defense field self-reliant. In this episode, now such aircraft will be manufactured in the country, which can be easily taken to difficult places. These aircraft will be equipped with a capacity to carry 71 soldiers, 44 paratroopers, and 24 stretchers. These aircraft will also be equipped with an indigenously made electronic warfare suite. These aircraft will be very useful in times of natural calamity. Airforce will be easy in the rescue operation.
