## History

TASL entered into a joint venture with Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation to manufacture the Sikorsky S-92 helicopter in India for the domestic civil and military markets. The plan was to have a US$200 million manufacturing plant operational in Hyderabad by 2010.[5][6] As production began, the first S-92 cabin was delivered in November 2010,[7] and capacity was expected to increase to 36–48 cabins a year.[8] By the end of July 2013, 39 cabins had been assembled.

The joint venture with Sikorsky has since been expanded to include the development of aerospace components for other original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). This facility, called Tara, also located in Hyderabad, was completed in 2011 and commenced production in 2012.[9] Another TASL joint-venture, with Lockheed Martin, is producing aero structures for the Lockheed C-130 Hercules and the Lockheed C-130J Super Hercules in India. It is a 74:26 joint venture which currently assembles Hercules centre wing boxes and empennages.[10] TASL will also establish a MRO facility in India of the C-130J.[11] TASL's joint venture with Lockheed Martin is named Tata Lockheed Martin Aerostructures.[12]

In partnership with Airbus Defence and Space, the company fielded the EADS CASA C-295 medium–lift tactical transport aircraft for the Indian Air Force's light-cargo fleet renewal program, which the Indian government approved on 13 May 2015. Under the agreement, Tata Advanced Systems has been selected as the Indian Production Agency (IPA) by Airbus DS.[13] Under the project, 16 complete aircraft will be imported, while 40 aircraft will be manufactured in India.[14] The Final Assembly Line (FAL) complex was inaugurated in October 2024. The first ‘Make in India’ C295 will roll out of the Vadodara FAL in September 2026.[15][16] The company has also entered an agreement to produce structures for the Pilatus PC-12NG from 2016 to 2026.[17]

The aerospace and military division of Tata Motors was sold to Tata Advanced Systems on May 3, 2018.[18] Lockheed Martin declared in September 2018 that, in partnership with TASL, it would manufacture wings for the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon.[19] Inaugurated in 2018, the Hyderabad facility of Tata Boeing Aerospace Limited (TBAL), a joint venture between Boeing and Tata Advanced Systems, will serve as the exclusive global manufacturer of fuselages for AH-64 Apache helicopters supplied by Boeing to its clientele worldwide.[20][21] On 10 February 2025, TBAL delivered the 300th fuselage for the AH-64 Apache from its facility in Hyderabad.[22]

In 2018, TASL established the Tata Centre of Excellence for Aero Engines to manufacture LEAP engine components in India for CFM International, a joint venture between GE Aerospace and Safran Aircraft Engines.[23] Tata Power SED was purchased by Tata Advanced Systems from Tata Power in 2020.[24]

In early 2021, it was reported that Tata Advanced Systems of India had likely bought the intellectual property rights of the Grob G180 SPn aircraft for the development of a military variant to be offered to the Indian army as a signals intelligence gathering and surveillance platform.[25] In February 2021, Lockheed Martin announced that they are teaming with Tata Advanced Systems for meeting the Indian Navy's proposed requirement for Naval Utility Helicopter (NUH).[26] In September 2021 India has signed deal of buying C-295 Cargo aircraft and that will be made by Tata Advanced System.[27] In 2022, TASL and GE Aerospace extended their long-term contract for the production and supply of various commercial aircraft engine components, which are to be manufactured at the Tata Centre of Excellence for Aero Engines.[23]

On 29 March 2023, TASL was awarded a contract from Airbus to supply cargo and bulk cargo doors for the A320neo family. They will be manufactured at a new facility in Hyderabad, which will deploy advanced robotics and automation for the task. Each shipset would include two cargo doors and one bulk cargo door.[28]

In 2024, Tata Advanced Systems announced that the company and Lockheed Martin are looking at further opportunities in India. This includes establishing a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility in India to support the IAF's fleet of 12 C-130Js and other global Super Hercules fleets.[29] It also includes expanding the C-130J manufacturing and assembly in India to produce aircraft for the IAF's Medium Transport Aircraft program, which subject to U.S. government and Indian government approvals.[29]

Following an armored vehicle contract from the Royal Moroccan Armed Forces in 2024, Tata Advanced Systems will establish a plant in Casablanca. The first WhAPs are expected to be rolled out in 18 months, with the intention of catering to the broader African market. The production facility, which will be operational within a year, will be able to produce 100 combat vehicles yearly.[30] In December 2024, TASL doubled the company's landholding in Nagpur’s MIHAN SEZ to 60 acres for expanding its aerospace manufacturing operations. TASL's existing Nagpur facility manufactures aircraft floor beams for both Boeing and Airbus at the same facility.[31]

In April 2025, the company acquired land in Karnataka's Vemgal Industrial Area for setting up a final assembly line for aircraft manufacturing and MRO.[32] Four production transfer agreements were signed on 5 June 2025, between Dassault Aviation and Tata Advanced Systems to manufacture the Rafale fighter aircraft fuselage in Hyderabad. This includes the front section, the central fuselage, the rear fuselage, and the lateral shells of the rear fuselage for India and other international markets.[33]

### Rajak

TASL developed Rajak-XLR, an enhanced variant of Rajak-ULR, for the Regiment of Artillery. It consists of a long-range continuous zoom-type thermal camera, a long-range continuous zoom-type day camera, and a laser rangefinder for analyzing the distance of the target. The system can detect vehicles within a range of 50 km including the type and humans within 40 km.[41]

### Lanza-N radar

TASL licence-manufactures Lanza-N L-band air surveillance radars for the frontline warships of the Indian Navy. The radar was designed & developed by Indra Sistemas. In 2019, the Indian Navy ordered 23 such radars from the Tata Advanced Systems at a cost of ₹12 billion (Template:INRConvert/HistoricalRate/Formatted). The delivery was to be completed by 2029. The first 3 units were to be directly delivered by Indra, while the rest of 20 units will be manufactured in India. By March 2023, the first radar was delivered to the Navy, and two units were under production. In July 2024, it was reported that Script error: The function "ship_prefix_templates" does not exist. has been retrofitted with the radar.[42][43]

The first Made in India Lanza-N radar was built, delivered, and commissioned into an Indian Navy warship on 10 September 2025. The radar was accepted and inducted after rigorous sea trials where the performance was tested against multiple naval and aerial targets with varying radar cross sections. The radar will be integrated with other Indian Navy frigates, destroyers, and aircraft carriers following this. The Indian variant would be modified for optimised to optimize its operation in the very humid and hot conditions of the Indian Ocean. TASL is the first Indian company to produce a 3D Air Surveillance Radar (3D-ASR). TASL operates a radar assembly, integration, and test facility in Karnataka. Lanza-N is an air defence and anti-missile radar.[44][45][46]

### Satellites

TASL built TSAT-1A at the Vemagal facility in Karnataka in collaboration with Satellogic. It is the first private-sector-owned sub-metre resolution earth observation satellite in India. the satellite was launched aboard SpaceX's Falcon 9 Bandwagon-1 mission on 7 April 2024 at 23:16 GMT.[47] TASL signed a deal with Satellogic, a US-based LEO satellite manufacturer, to build a production facility in India for LEO satellites.[48]

### Tata–Lockheed Martin Aerostructures

See also: Company:Lockheed Martin

#### C-130J projects

Main article: Engineering:Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules

In July 2010, the then Foreign Investment Promotion Board under the Government of India cleared the proposal of Tata Group's wholly-owned subsidiary, Tata Advanced Systems (TASL), to form a joint venture with Lockheed Martin’s wholly owned subsidiary, Lockheed Martin Aeroframe Corporation (LMAC). The joint venture (JV) company will be Tata–Lockheed Martin Aerostructures Limited (TLMAL)[49] where TASL and LMAC will initially hold a stake of 74% and 26%, respectively. To develop the infrastructures necessary for the JV's operation, TASL and LMAC will invest ₹42.82 crore (equivalent to ₹77 crore or US$11 million in 2023) and ₹121.27 crore (equivalent to ₹219 crore or US$31 million in 2023). As stated by TASL, the joint venture would have an export potential of ₹920 crore (Template:INRConvert/HistoricalRate/Formatted).[50][51][52] The joint venture was as a part of offset obligation to the Indian Air Force’s deal to purchase 6 C-130J-30 tactical airlifter.

By late 2011, the joint venture started the production of airframe components for Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules aircraft. The components were then shipped to Lockheed's C-130 final assembly line facility in Marietta, Georgia, for integration and delivery.[51][52]

As of March 2014, Lockheed Martin was looking to establish an engine MRO facility in India to support the country's and South Asia's aviation market. This would be the company's third engine MRO facility besides its existing facilities in the US and Canada. A feasibility study for the purpose was underway within the company, and the firm is expected to confirm its decision by the year-end. As of then, the company had yet to decide on the facility's initial maintenance capacity, rate, its location — Hyderabad, Delhi, Bangalore, and Mumbai — and whether to develop the facility from scratch or undertake a joint development with an existing entity. Meanwhile, the company already has its presence in Adibatla SEZ near Hyderabad, operating as TMLAL, in order to manufacture aerostructures like centre wing boxes and empennages for defence aircraft.[53]

On 16 September 2016, TLMAL delivered the 50th empennage assembly — including horizontal and vertical stabilizers along with leading edges and tip assemblies[54] — and also completed manufacturing of 28 sets of centre wing box components — including front and rear beam assemblies, formers and trailing edge sections — for C-130J on or ahead of schedule. The company also established itself as the sole global supplier of both components for the aircraft.[51][52][55][56]

On 18 April 2018, TMLAL inducted India's first-of-its-kind metal-to-metal-bonding facility, besides the existing infrastructure. The new facility spreads over an area of 4,700 m2 (1.2 acres) and employs a skilled workforce with a strength of over 80. Additionally, TLMAL also undertook an initiative to increase the indigenisation of the empennage assemblies by transferring the production responsibilities of 2,000 empennage parts from foreign entities to Tata–Sikorsky Aerospace Limited (TSAL), another Tata-Lockheed Martin joint venture. Overall, the joint venture employs 500 people and has an annual capacity of 24 C-130J empennages. As of then, 85 empennages built by TLMAL have been installed on C-130J aircraft delivered by Lockheed Martin to customers around the world, including the Indian Air Force.[57][58][54]

TLMAL delivered the 100th, 150th, 200th and 250th empennage to Lockheed Martin on 20 February 2019,[54] 20 October 2021,[59] 9 August 2023[60][61] and 5 December 2025.[62]

On 24 August 2021, Lockheed Martin was awarded a Follow-On Support II (FOS) contract worth $328.8 million from the Indian Air Force for its 12-aircraft C-130J-30 fleet for five years. For the entire duration of the contract, eight personnel from Lockheed Martin, General Electric (propeller manufacturer), and Rolls-Royce (engine manufacturer) will be stationed in India to support on-site technical maintenance of the fleet. Additionally, under the FOS II contract, five C-130J Hercules aircraft will undergo 12-year depot-level servicing at a Lockheed Martin-approved Heavy Maintenance Center (HMC), starting in 2022.[63][64]

On 10 September 2024, Lockheed Martin and Tata Advanced Systems signed a teaming agreement to strengthen and expand their collaboration on the C-130J Super Hercules programme. The expansion includes the establishment of a Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) facility to support the C-130J fleet of the Indian Air Force and other global users as well as, beyond manufacturing and assembling components, producing the entire aircraft in India to support Lockheed Martin's campaign for the Indian Air Force's Medium Transport Aircraft (MTA). The final assembly line would be set up in India only if Lockheed Martin gets the MTA contract and would complement the already-operational final assembly line in Marietta, Georgia, USA. Meanwhile, TLMAL also delivered over 220 empennages for C-130J.[65][66][67][68]

The groundbreaking ceremony for the aforementioned MRO facility was held on 5 December 2025 at Bhatramarenahalli near the Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru. As per the schedule, the construction of the facility is expected to commence in 2026 with operationalisation planned in early 2027. The facility support not only C-130J but also KC-130J and C-130 B-H variants.[69][70]

In March 2026, Ramco Systems announced that TASL has selected its aviation MRO software for the facility. The software will manage all aspects of the facility's operation, including contract and quote management, maintenance planning, hangar and component maintenance, supply chain management, engineering and quality, as well as customer billing.[71]

#### B787 sub components

In August 2007, TAL Manufacturing Solutions Limited (TALMSL), then a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Motors, planned to acquire a land in a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Nagpur. The firm would set up a component manufacturing plant there and would probably aim at the aerospace sector.[72] By February 2008, the company was setting up a manufacturing facility at MIHAN. TALMSL also announced that they will be a part of Boeing 787 Dreamliner's supply chain and will manufacture floor beams for the aircraft in its upcoming facility using state-of-the-art technology of advanced titanium and composite materials.[73] The first deliveries were expected in early 2009.[74] While Boeing awarded the maiden contract for Advanced Composite Floor Beam (ACFB) to TALMSL in 2011, the first batch was delivered in 2014.[75] In September 2012, TALMSL was planning a brownfield expansion worth ₹250 crore (Template:INRConvert/HistoricalRate/Formatted) over an area of 190 acres (0.77 km2) in addition to its existing facility in MIHAN. This facility was expected to be ready by 2017.[76] On 27 August 2019, Boeing marked the delivery of 25,000th ACFB from TALMSL, now a TASL subsidiary.[75]
