Russia Proposes Su-57 Production in India Amid Regional Aircraft Assembly Developments
Russia has proposed that India manufacture 100 Su-57 stealth fighter jets domestically, aiming to replicate the Su-30MKI partnership and expand aerospace collaboration. India must consider this alongside its indigenous AMCA fighter program. Separately, Russian company United Aircraft Corporation signed a Letter of Intent with Indian firms for 85 IL114-300 turboprop aircraft, while Embraer and Adani agreed on a final assembly line for the E-175 in India. Boeing and Airbus have increased sourcing but have not committed to assembly lines in India.
