India Excludes HAL from 5th Gen Fighter Jet Project ✈️

Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) has reportedly been excluded from India’s next big defence aviation project—the AMCA, a fifth-generation fighter jet programme worth INR 15,000 crore. For decades, HAL has led India’s aircraft manufacturing. But missed deadlines, delayed deliveries, and stalled engine projects have raised concerns. The Indian Air Force needs more jets. And with HAL falling short, private players are stepping in. The Air Chief has voiced his frustration. This shift marks a major reset in India’s defence manufacturing strategy—where competition, timelines, and delivery now matter more than legacy.
