NEW DELHI:

On December 12, the defence ministry inked a ₹13,500-crore contract with HAL for the 12 fighters along with associated equipment for the IAF, in a push for the country's self-reliance drive.

HAL is reactivating its Su-30 production line in Nashik to execute the contract, said one of the persons cited above. The aircraft manufacturing division at Nashik, set up in 1964, has licence produced MiG variants as well as Su-30s. "The preparatory work is starting now. Most of the structural parts and components will be manufactured and supplied by local vendors. Some material will be imported from Russia."
