Boeing outlines 'Make in India' approach for upgrading P-81

Boeing has revealed its strategy to enhance the engineering, manufacturing, and maintenance capabilities of the P-8I aircraft in India. The company is aiming for an additional order of six planes, as the Indian Navy currently operates a fleet of 12 P-8I aircraft. The P-8I is equipped for various operations such as anti-submarine warfare and intelligence surveillance. Boeing has already made a significant economic impact in India and is actively looking to enhance capabilities in the country. Discussions are ongoing with the Indian Navy regarding adding more P-8I aircraft to their fleet.
