India’s indigenous Light Combat Aircraft Tejas received praise from Japan Air Self-Defence Force (JASDF) Chief General Takehiro Morita on Sunday after he flew the fighter jet during the bilateral air exercise Veer Guardian-2026 in Rajasthan.
Calling the aircraft a symbol of India’s technological capabilities and Make in India programme, Morita said his flight aboard the Tejas offered him a first-hand look at the country's indigenous defence ecosystem.
