The production model of the 5th -generation fighter aircraft ie Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) has been approved in India. The central government gave this information on Tuesday. The Defense Ministry said that private companies along with government companies will be given the opportunity to bid for aircraft production. The Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) will soon issue the Expression of Interest (EOI) for this.
The confidence of Indian defense scientists has reached the seventh heaven, with the destruction of indigenous weapons in Operation Sindur. Now the world is saluting their work. In such a situation, India is working on a plan to develop indigenous weapons faster. The Government of India has taken a major decision on Tuesday in this direction. Defense Minister Rajnath Singh has approved the implementation model of the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) program. This is India’s fifth -generation fighter aircraft. This is a big decision to strengthen the Indian Air Force facing fighter planes. Because Pakistan is buying a fifth -generation fighter aircraft from China. India, on the other hand, is forced to buy a fifth -generation fighter aircraft from the United States or Russia. In such a situation this decision is very important.
The program will be implemented by the Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) in partnership with industries. This step is a major landmark towards developing AMCA prototype using indigenous skills, ability and merit, which is an important step towards self -reliance in the aerospace field. Shares of Defense and Related sectors increased by about 6 percent due to the announcement of giving private companies a chance to build aircraft. The Nifty India Defense Index also reached a new high of 52 weeks of 8,674.05.
Stealth fighter jet
AMCA is India’s fifth -generation stealth fighter jet, which is being developed using indigenous technology. The aircraft will be equipped with sophisticated technologies such as radar’s ability to escape, advanced weapons systems and modern sensors. The purpose of this project is to increase the strength of the Indian Air Force and to establish India as a strong defense power globally. The decision by the Ministry of Defense will not only promote indigenous innovation in the defense sector but it will also help Indian industries to be competitive globally.
AMCA is another fighter jet made of indigenous technology
Advanced medium combat aircraft ie AMCA will be another fighter aircraft to develop indigenously. Earlier in India, the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) Tejas and its advanced version Tejas Mark-1 have been developed. The more advanced version of it is running on Mark-1-A. According to the information, AMCA will be available for deployment in the Air Force and Navy by 2025.
With this approval, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh has made it clear that the government’s attention is towards self -reliant India. The AMCA project will not only promote indigenation in the defense sector but will establish India as a key player in the global defense market. The technology developed under this project will also be useful for other defense and civil projects in the future.
This step is a moment of pride for India because it would be a great achievement to develop complex and advanced technology like AMCA indigenously. This will strengthen India’s defense capabilities and strengthen the country’s position on the global stage. The project will provide Indian industries an opportunity to master the new technology, which will contribute to the country’s economic and technological progress in the long run.
