Plans to induct technologically-advanced aircraft in future
WHILE Aero India 2025 is hosting a range of aircraft from different countries, and the Indian Air Force is bedazzling spectators on the ground at Yelahanka Air Force Station, with breathtaking aerial displays, the Naval Air Arm is offering a rare peek into its air power that supports the Indian Navy in protecting our vast coastline and beyond.
The Naval Air Arm is the aviation branch and a combat arm of the Indian Navy, tasked with providing aircraft carrier-based strike capability, fleet air defence, maritime reconnaissance, and anti-submarine warfare. The blue-water Indian Navy operates significantly in the Persian Gulf Region, the Horn of Africa, the Strait of Malacca, and routinely conducts anti-piracy operations and partners with other navies, along with joint exercises, ably supported by its fleet of fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters.
