Dynamatic Technologies has outsourced the production of composite materials for the front fuselage of India’s indigenous Tejas Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) to Azista Composites, addressing its limitations in composite fabrication. This strategic move ensures the Tejas program benefits from advanced materials that enhance performance and stealth characteristics, aligning with the Make in India initiative. While this partnership strengthens the supply chain, some industry observers express concerns that the lack of in- house composite capabilities may hinder Dynamatic’s long-term competitiveness, especially with future projects like the LCA Mk2 and AMCA relying heavily on composites. Overall, leveraging Azista’s expertise represents a pragmatic approach to enhancing the Tejas’ design and production efficiency.
