Prime Ministers Narendra Modi and Pedro Sanchez launched the TATA Aircraft Complex at TATA Advanced Systems Limited in Vadodara, Gujarat, during Sanchez's maiden visit to India.

He also paid tribute to the late Ratan Tata, stating that the complex embodies India's new work ethic, allowing for swift execution from idea to implementation.
Over the last decade, strategic initiatives have significantly boosted India's military production, resulting in a 30-fold increase in defence exports to over 100 nations.
