From Tejas Mk2 to AMCA: Four upcoming aircraft that will transform the Indian Air Force by 2035

India's air dominance and defence sector is on the brink of a major transformation, with four advanced indigenous aircraft projects expected to redefine the capabilities of the Indian Air Force (IAF) and Navy by 2035. These include the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA), Tejas Mk-2, Twin Engine Deck Based Fighter (TEDBF), and the Netra Mk-2 Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) platform. Each represents a critical step toward achieving self-reliance in defence production and next-generation air power.
