India's AMCA Fighter Programme Faces Further Delay as ADA Extends Bid Deadline
India's Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) has granted industry bidders two additional months to submit proposals for the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) programme. The initiative aims to develop an indigenous fifth-generation stealth fighter jet for the Indian Air Force. Whichever partner is selected will be required to achieve a prototype flight within 30 months of signing the contract. The Indian Air Force intends to induct the advanced aircraft into service by the mid-2030s. The deadline extension marks another setback for the already delayed homegrown defence programme.
