At the opening ceremony of Wings India 2024, French aerospace giant Airbus signed a contract with Tata Advanced Systems Limited (TASL) and Mahindra Aerospace Structures Private Limited (MASPL) to procure commercial aircraft components.
Hyderabad : At the opening ceremony of Wings India 2024, French aerospace giant Airbus signed a contract with Tata Advanced Systems Limited (TASL) and Mahindra Aerospace Structures Private Limited (MASPL) to procure commercial aircraft components.
Under the contract, TASL and Mahindra Aero Structures will manufacture metallic detail parts, components, and assemblies for Airbus' A320neo, A330neo, and A350 programmes.
The two companies are already among the 100 India-based suppliers that provide components, engineering, and digital services for various Airbus programmes.
“Airbus has made ‘Make in India’ front and centre of its strategy in the country. Our ambition is not only to support the growth of the Indian commercial fleet but also to grow the complete aerospace ecosystem here, and that includes developing and strengthening manufacturing and engineering capabilities from our Indian partners,” said Rémi Maillard, President and Managing Director of Airbus India and South Asia.
“Tata Advanced Systems and Mahindra Aero Structures already contribute to our aircraft programmes, and the latest contracts increase our cooperation with them,” he added.
For Airbus, India is a strategic resource hub where the company is expanding its industrial footprint with aircraft assembly, component manufacturing, engineering design and development, MRO support, pilot and maintenance training, as well as academic collaboration to foster human capital.
Every Airbus commercial aircraft has components and technologies made in India, including the A220 escape hatch door and the flap track beams for the A320neo and A330neo aircraft.
Currently, the company’s procurement of components and services stands at about US$750 million every year, and the latest round of contracts will add significantly to it.
Airbus’ said its efforts to mature the wider Indian aerospace ecosystem include the building of a final assembly line for the C295 military aircraft in Vadodara under an industrial contract with TASL, as well as training commercial pilots and maintenance crew.
