BOEING HAS BEEN A TRUSTED PARTNER OF INDIA'S AEROSPACE sector for more than 80 years, both as the mainstay of India’s growing commercial aviation sector and, in the modernisation and mission readiness of the country’s defence forces. Today, with 11 C-17s, 12 P-8Is, 22 AH-64 Apaches (with six more on order with the Indian Army), 15 CH-47 Chinooks, 3 VVIP aircraft and two Head of State aircraft, India is at the front and centre of Boeing’s business plans. When we talk about Boeing and India, we are talking about several firsts. India was the first international customer of P-8I aircraft. India is the largest international operator of C-17s outside the US. The Harpoon is the first US weapon integrated into an Indian fighter. India’s defence sector is poised for growth, and Boeing is committed to supporting and enabling this progress. The future looks promising and we continue to see several opportunities in India.
