India's inaugural private sector military aircraft plant will be opened today. Spanish Prime Minister is set to inaugurate the Tata-Airbus plant in Gujarat during his first trip to India. Pedro Sanchez, the Prime Minister of Spain, arrived in Vadodara on Monday to attend the inauguration ceremony of the Final Assembly Line for the C295 medium-lift tactical transport aircraft for the Indian Air Force, alongside Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This facility in Vadodara represents India's inaugural private production plant for military transport aircraft, a joint venture between Tata Advanced Systems Limited (TASL) and Airbus Defence and Space (Airbus DS).


A 2.5 km roadshow will lead from the airport to the Tata facility, featuring cultural performances along the way.


Both leaders will visit the iconic Laxmi Vilas Palace, where they will participate in a bilateral meeting arranged by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).


Following lunch at the palace, they will continue on to their individual destinations, as per officials. Sanchez is scheduled to depart for Spain at approximately 12:30 am on Wednesday as per information provided by the MEA. India is set to receive 56 C295 aircraft to modernize the IAF's aging Avro fleet. Airbus is set to deliver the initial 16 aircraft from its Seville-based facility in Spain, with the remaining 40 to be produced by TASL in Vadodara. Recognized for its ability to operate on short or unprepared runways, the C295 has a capacity to transport up to 71 troops or 50 paratroopers, making it well-suited for tactical missions. The Vadodara facility is scheduled to commence production of the first domestically manufactured C295 aircraft in 2026, with the 56th aircraft anticipated to be delivered by 2031.

Gaza is encircled by substantial walls and security barriers. Palestinians are di...

Israel says Rafah is Hamas' last stronghold in the Gaza Strip.
