A Tata initiative.

The first private plant for the manufacture of Military aircraft, in India.

After an impressive roadshow in Gujarat's Vadodhara, PM Modi and his Spanish counterpart Pedro Sanchez jointly inaugurated the Tata Advanced System Limited (TASL)-Airbus plant to manufacture C-295 military aircraft in the city.

It is the country's first assembly line where at least 18,000 components of the aircraft will be manufactured. "Till now we had the vision of Make in India, now proudly we extend it to Make in India, Make for the World", the PM said in his address.

The foundation stone of the project was laid in Oct 2022 and within two years, work on production of a C-295 has started. Another plant to manufacture Bombardier train coaches was commissioned in record time, it was recalled.

PM Sanchez called the Tata group a "giant among giants". "Today, we are not only officially inaugurating a cutting edge industrial facility....this partnership will contribute to the progress of the Indian aerospace industry", he added.
