The 11th edition of the Aero India exhibition is taking place on February 15-18 and is organized by India’s Defense Ministry at Air Force Base Yelahanka in the city of Bengaluru. The event focuses on aerospace, defense, civil aviation, airport infrastructure and defense engineering. The business part of the exhibition wrapped up on Friday.
The Russian exhibit, organized by the state arms exporter Rosoboronexport, featured over 400 exhibits, including a fifth-generation fighter jet and the latest attack helicopter models. Over 40 defense sector companies took part, including Almaz-Antey, the United Aircraft Corporation, MiG and the Sukhoi Company. Rostec state corporation's director for international cooperation, Victor Kladov, headed the Russian delegation.
Delegations from several countries showed interest in Russian Orlan drones, spurred by their successful use in Russia's anti-terrorist operation in Syria.
"In this respect we have projects such as Orlan, for example, other projects of Russia's defense industry, of Shvabe Holding, there are 3D technologies, when a drone is produced within several hours using a [3D] printer," Kladov said on Friday.
The Orlan-10 is a medium-range, multi-purpose unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed by Russia's Special Technology Center in 2010. The drone is intended for aerial reconnaissance, observation, monitoring, search and rescue, combat training, jamming, detection of radio signals, and target tracking.
Russia and India are major partners in the military technology sector. A significant portion of the the Indian army's equipment is either from Russia and the Soviet Union or produced under license from Russia. India purchases billions of US dollars’ worth of Russian equipment each year.
