Hyderabad-based company to make fighter jet simulators

Axial Aero Private Limited, a Hyderabad-based company, is all set to produce fighter jet simulators domestically, which will not only reduce costs for India’s defence systems but also give rise to ancillary industries and MSMEs.

Axial Aero has secured all required approvals to commercially produce these simulators and has even signed agreements with the Ministry of



Defence’s Innovations for Defence Excellence (iDEX) program to supply five simulators within the next three years.

The production of these will be done at T-Works in Hyderabad. The domestically produced simulators will not only be supplied for Rs 25-30 crore, much cheaper than the cost of an imported simulator at Rs 50 crore, but will also surpass international standards.
