On Monday, the skies over Yelahanka Air Force Station came alive as the Indian Air Force (IAF) showcased amazing aircraft in Aero India 2025. This event, held every two years, is one of the biggest air shows in Asia, where many countries come together to show off their latest technology in aviation.
Air Chief Marshal A P Singh led the way in the first flight, flying the Tejas fighter jet. The Tejas is made in India by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL). The audience watched in amazement as a special group of women pilots flew Rafale jets as part of a formation called Shakti, showing how women are becoming an essential part of the air force.
The Surya Kiran Aerobatic Team dazzled everyone with their impressive flying tricks using nine BAE Hawks, creating artistic shapes in the sky like a tri-color and a heart. Other remarkable displays included formations by the Indian Navy’s Varun team and the Jaguar aircraft. The Light Utility Helicopters from HAL also thrilled the crowd with their skills, especially since they are useful for our armed forces in tough areas.
For the first time at Aero India, two of the world’s most advanced fighter jets are participating: America’s F-35 Lightning II and Russia’s Sukhoi Su-57. This historic moment shows how countries are working together in defense technology. People will be able to see these incredible planes up close, with the F-35 being on display during the event.
This five-day airshow promises excitement for aviation fans and is a chance to see the future of military aircraft!
