In pictures: Aero India 2015

February 18, 2015 02:49 pm | Updated November 28, 2021 07:40 am IST

Prime Minister Narendra Modi opened the Aero India 2015 air show and exhibition on Wednesday morning at the Air Force Station Yelahanka. Defence Ministers or officials of equivalent ranks of six countries — the USA, Russia, Israel and Germany among them — were present.

The Indian military planes and helicopters include, the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) Tejas, the Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) Dhruv, the Sukhoi-30 MkI medium fighter and the newly-purchased Pilatus basic trainer from the IAF and HAL stables. A highly expectant Dassault of France has brought in three Rafale fighters: this plane is shortlisted to be bought for the IAF.
