India has made a strong impression at the Egypt International Air Show 2024 with a diverse display of advanced defence systems. The Indian pavilion showcased a range of cutting-edge weaponry, underscoring the nation's growing prowess in the aerospace and defence sector.
Key attractions included the Astra Mk1 air-to-air missile, the Akash surface-to-air missile system, and scaled models of the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA)-Tejas. The Surface-to-Air Weapon (SAAW) and Helina anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) were also represented through models.
These systems are not merely on display, but are actively being offered to Egypt and other African nations present at the air show. This reflects India's expanding strategic footprint in the region and a commitment to bolstering defence partnerships with African countries.
The showcase of such advanced defence capabilities serves as a testament to India's technological progress and its capacity to provide state-of-the-art solutions to address the diverse security needs of its partners. In a world grappling with ever-evolving security challenges, India's defence industry is poised to play a pivotal role in fostering regional stability and peace.
