It may be noted that in the meeting of the Union Cabinet chaired by PM Modi on Wednesday 6828.40 crores for the Indian Air Force Approval was accorded for procurement of 40 HTT-40 Basic Trainer aircraft from Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) at a cost of Rs. These aircraft will be supplied over a period of six years. This is an important Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) decision, which will give a fillip to the ongoing efforts to make our defense sector self-reliant and also benefit the vibrant Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector, PM Modi said in a tweet. Will do.
