: A prominent installation on the premises of the Kerala State Science and Technology Museum is the HAL Ajeet fighter aircraft, which had played a significant role in the Indo-Pak war of 1965.

The aircraft will soon be refurbished and restored with partial movement. The operation of the wings, flaps, rudder and other parts will be demonstrated. In addition, the cockpit will be modified and the aircraft will be incorporated with LED lights and sound effects. Efforts are on to make the installation a key highlight of the museum, official sources said.
