	The Tata-Ruag partnership is a glowing example of cooperation between India and Europe, S Ramadorai, TASL chairman, said. 
 

	"It is our belief that this project is a significant step forward in India's growth as a high technology, precision, manufacturing destination. Ruag has entrusted the Tatas to deliver its showcase product, the Dornier 228, at world-class standards of precision and quality," he said. 
 

	"Our vision is to work with Ruag in having a full aircraft, equipped with systems flying out from a Tata final assembly. This will be of significant importance to the Indian Armed forces in their desire to produce products locally," he added
 TASL, in a span of five years, has become a significant player in the Global Aerospace market by delivering successfully over 70 Sikorsky S-92 cabins, and delivered Empennage and Center Wing Box for the C-130 J aircraft through its separate JV with <keyword id="112859" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Lockheed-Martin">Lockheed Martin</keyword>, Ramadorai said.

It's expected to be carved up with parts sold to both Boeing and Airbus.Airbus' problems also extend to its space division, where it announced charges of 900 million euros ($965 million). Its guidance update said it would "evaluate all strategic options" including potential restructuring and M&amp;A options.

The Defence Ministry on Friday inked a nearly Rs 20,000 crore contract with <keyword id="6356166" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Airbus" source="Orion">Airbus</keyword> Defence and Space of Spain to procure 56 C-295 medium transport aircraft which will replace Avro-748 planes of the <keyword id="15141" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Indian-Air-Force" source="Orion">Indian Air Force</keyword>. The long-pending procurement was cleared by the Cabinet Committee on Security two weeks back. "Contract signed between #MinistryOfDefence and @AirbusDefence &amp;Space, Spain for procurement of 56 C-295 transport aircraft for the #IAF," Defence Ministry Spokesperson A Bharat Bhushan Babu tweeted. Under the deal, 16 aircraft will be delivered in a flyaway condition by the Airbus Defence and Space within 48 months of signing the contract. The remaining 40 planes will be manufactured in India by a consortium of the Airbus Defence and Space and Tata Advanced Systems Limited (TASL) within 10 years of signing the contract, officials said. The C-295 MW aircraft is a transport plane of 5-10 tonne capacity. This is the first project of its kind in which a military aircraft will be manufactured in India by a private company. "All 56 aircraft will be installed with indigenous electronic warfare suite," the ministry had said on September 8 after the procurement was cleared by the Cabinet Committee on Security. The in-principle approval for the Avro replacement programme was accorded around nine years back. A large number of detail parts, sub-assemblies and major component assemblies of aerostructure are scheduled to be manufactured in India. The ministry had said that before completion of the deliveries, a servicing facility for C-295 MW aircraft is scheduled to be set up in India.

A Tata Group company will make 40 Airbus C-295 transport aircraft out of the 56 ordered by the Indian Air Force

<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Boeing">Boeing</a> and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Tata+Advanced+Systems">Tata Advanced Systems</a> on Monday announced a joint venture that will manufacture aerostructures for aircraft and collaborate on integrated systems development opportunities in India. 
 
According to the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Boeing">Boeing</a> press release, "The JV will initially create a manufacturing center of excellence to produce aerostructures for the AH-64 Apache helicopter and to compete for additional manufacturing work packages across Boeing platforms, both commercial and defense." 
Boeing and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Tata+Advanced+Systems">Tata Advanced Systems</a> want to grow this partnership in the future. They want to collaborate, develop and sell integrated systems. 
 
"This partnership will capitalize on India's industrial capability, innovation and talent to contribute to <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Boeing">Boeing</a>'s long-term competitiveness and position us for future growth in the global marketplace," said Chris Chadwick, president and CEO of Boeing Defense, Space &amp; Security. "It is a demonstration of our commitment to further accelerate our partnership with one of the world's fastest growing economies." 
 
"This agreement to establish a JV will propel the growth of the Indian aerospace sector by leveraging the world-class competencies of TASL and its supplier eco-system, as well as provide access to India's world-class manufacturing capability, skilled talent and competitive cost structures," said S. Ramadorai, chairman, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Tata+Advanced+Systems">Tata Advanced Systems</a>. 
 
"Over the last 12 months, we have doubled our sourcing from India and are committed to continue that journey," said Pratyush Kumar, president, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Boeing">Boeing India</a>. "Our commitment was demonstrated by Boeing Chairman Jim McNerney's presence at the recently concluded aerospace Innovation Summit in New Delhi and this JV is a clear example of <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Boeing">Boeing</a>'s long-term commitment to <keyword id="6354869" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="make-in-India">Make in India</keyword>." 
 
"TASL is one of the select few in the private sector in India undertaking manufacturing and assembly of both aircraft and helicopters. The resulting scale and expertise at which the company now operates makes it well-positioned for large-scale systems integration work in India's aerospace and defense sector," said Sukaran Singh, MD &amp; CEO, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=Tata+Advanced+Systems">Tata Advanced Systems</a>.

Boeing and <keyword id="2836827" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Tata-Advanced-Systems-Limited">Tata Advanced Systems Limited</keyword> (TASL) on Wednesday signed a framework agreement to take part in aerospace and defence manufacturing and potential integrated systems development opportunities, including unmanned aerial vehicles, taking <keyword id="6354477" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Narendra-Modi">Narendra Modi</keyword>’s ‘<keyword id="6354869" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="make-in-India">Make in India</keyword>’ campaign one step ahead. 

	The agreement was signed by Shelley Lavender, president of Boeing Military Aircraft and Sukaran Singh, managing director and chief executive officer of TASL. TASL already has a contract to manufacture aerostructures for Boeing's CH-47 Chinook and AH-6i helicopters.
 

	"This agreement with TASL is significant because it demonstrates Boeing's commitment to expanding its aerospace manufacturing footprint in India," Lavender said.
 "As we step into our 100th year in business, a new aerospace partnership with India is the perfect milestone to accelerate the momentum we have generated for making in India," said Pratyush Kumar, president for <keyword id="189173" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Boeing-India">Boeing India</keyword>. "It is noteworthy that TASL will produce Chinook helicopter parts in India even before the procurement contract is signed with the Indian government." 

	The companies intend to access markets jointly for products and platforms developed together by Boeing and TASL, a company press release said.
 

	"This framework agreement is the result of the world-class competencies of TASL as well as the vendor eco-system it has helped establish in India. It gives us an opportunity to explore the massive potential in India for aerospace manufacturing and make the investments required to grow the industry," said S. Ramadorai, Chairman of TASL. "Boeing's platforms require complex manufacturing processes within a competitive cost structure and we are confident that the partnership will be able to deliver high quality aerostructures out of India."
 Other Tata group companies - <keyword id="2951672" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Tata-Advanced-Materials-Limited">Tata Advanced Materials Limited</keyword> (TAML) and TAL Manufacturing Solutions (TAL) - are also supplying important components to Boeing. TAML has delivered power and mission equipment cabinets and auxiliary power unit door fairings for the P-8I long range maritime surveillance and anti submarine warfare aircraft.
