There seemed to be less excitement at Yelahanka air base, compared to the last edition with lesser number of aircraft participating though the number of participating countries and companies matched that in 2011. Scaling down of presence by some foreign companies was striking.
Three Mi-8 helicopters trooped in with the national flag, IAF ensign and Aero India flag just before Antony inaugurated the event, witnessed by a galaxy of officials, industry delegates, exhibitors and representatives from India and abroad. Aero India 2013 is showcasing the latest international technology in the fields of military and civil aircraft, avionics and sub-systems, as well as radars in the defence and aerospace sector.
