Bengaluru, 10 February 2025 – Samtel Avionics (SA), a key player in India’s defence technology sector and part of the 50-year-old Samtel Group, is set to showcase its indigenous manufacturing capabilities at AeroIndia 2025. With a strong legacy of supporting India’s self-reliance goals, Samtel Avionics has been at the forefront of developing high-tech rugged military systems, aligning with the Government of India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat and Make in India initiatives.

For over 15 years, Samtel Avionics has played a critical role in the evolution of India’s defence avionics landscape. The company has collaborated extensively with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), Indian Air Force (IAF), and Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) to develop indigenous displays and military electronics. Samtel’s proprietary Ruggedisation technology, developed under the guidance of DRDO, has enabled the design, development, and manufacturing of advanced multifunction displays for platforms such as the Su-30 MKI, Light Combat Helicopter (LCH), Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH), and HTT-40 trainer aircraft.

Further strengthening India’s defence manufacturing ecosystem, Samtel Avionics, through its joint venture with HAL, has successfully contributed to the indigenisation journey of the Indian Armed Forces. Products manufactured by the JV are already operational and proving their capabilities in active service.
