(CercleFinance.com) - Tata Advanced Systems Limited (TASL) and Airbus have inaugurated the final assembly line (FAL) complex for the Airbus C295 aircraft in Vadodara, Gujarat, India.
TASL and Airbus are partnering on the pioneering 'Make in India' project to deliver 56 C295 aircraft to the Indian Air Force (IAF).
This inauguration comes three years after the IAF announced the acquisition of 56 Airbus C295s to replace its existing AVRO fleet.
In accordance with the contract, 40 units will be manufactured and assembled in partnership with TASL at this FAL, while 16 will be delivered to the IAF in "flying" condition from the Airbus final assembly line in Seville, Spain. To date, a total of six aircraft have already been delivered.
