The Indian Air Force on Friday (!4 October) released pictures of 14 Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) Tejas fighter aircraft flying in formation over the skies of Sulur Air Force Station.
While the Tejas has participated in various air shows and displays in the last few years, friday's display marks the first such deployment of over a dozen aircraft of this type.
Livefist, a noted defence reporting portal had this to say:
"In the last few weeks, the IAF’s social media handles have positively exploded with perhaps the first high quality images of frontline aircraft in years. The IAF’s otherwise somewhat staid social media handles have been replete with a stream of mid-air photographs of air assets, the likes of which we’ve definitely never seen before."
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
