Kakinada MP V. Geetha on Monday inaugurated an aircraft museum here, allowing the visitors to catch a glimpse of the Indian Navy’s decommissioned aircraft TU-142M. This aircraft has served for three decades in the Indian Navy. Developed by the Kakinada Urban Development Authority (KUDA) with ₹5.89 crore, this is the second aircraft museum in the State. 

Addressing the gathering, Ms. Geetha said that various amusement facilities have also been developed adjacent to the aircraft museum. The Indian Navy intends to create awareness among the public on the functioning of the aircraft and inspire the youth to join the defence forces, she said.
