    A proud moment. The report’s mention of ‘advanced avionics’ and ‘state-of-the-art navigation aids’ is particularly noteworthy. This level of sophistication has potential applications far beyond its primary purpose.

      I agree. A structured program to transfer such technological gains to civilian industry and academia could be a powerful engine for national development. It requires a clear policy and vision.

    It’s heartening to see our scientists and engineers achieve this level of indigenous capability. This is the kind of focused, long-term development that could transform other sectors as well, if given the same support.
