ALMOST TWO years after Airbus–Tata C-295 Final Assembly Line in Vadodara was jointly inaugurated in October 2024, the first ‘Made in India’ C-295 aircraft will roll out of the factory before September this year, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said on Wednesday.


to be fair to the iranians the US apperas to have lost 2 C130J variants and 2 helos on top of 2 MQ9s. not a cheap mission in the slightest. also looks like there have been significant injuries for the rescue squad.Never knew before US had C-295!
WATCH: A USAF C-295W from the 427th Special Operations Squadron was spotted flying low over western Iran this morning. A unit known for specialized infiltration and exfiltration missions deep inside hostile territory.
Anyway pretty humiliating episode for iroonis, just ~40km south of second largest city isafahan, not even some rando anti-regime province like sistan-baluchistan or kuzhestan (arabs)
hmm? thought this was scheduled for sep 2026? did they deliver faster then expected? or was sep 2026 for delivery to the IAF
