NEW DELHI - Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), the Bengaluru-based aerospace and defense company, is set to highlight its advancements in self-reliant avionic systems at the upcoming HAL Avionics Expo-2023. The two-day event, which begins on Thursday, will be inaugurated by Chief of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan at the Ambedkar International Centre in New Delhi.
This expo comes on the heels of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent engagement with HAL, where he undertook a sortie in a Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) Tejas twin-seater and reviewed the firm's contributions towards 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat' or self-reliant India. His visit underscored the importance of indigenous development in India's defense sector.
The expo will showcase advanced flight control systems and other avionic products developed by HAL. It aims to bring together stakeholders from the defense sector, including representatives from the Indian Armed Forces, Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Civil Aviation, and the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). The event will also provide networking opportunities for professionals and offer educational experiences for engineering students.
In addition to the exhibition, panel discussions are scheduled to address emerging trends in aviation electronics and system integration challenges. These discussions will feature input from military experts and academicians. Attendees will also have the opportunity for hands-on experience with these cutting-edge systems through live demonstrations.
HAL's Chairman and Managing Director C B Ananthakrishnan and Director (Engineering & R&D) Dr D K Sunil are gearing up for a successful expo that not only showcases HAL's innovations but also fosters dialogue on advancing aerospace technology.
