The Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) has signed a MoU with Boeing to source sub-system for fighter aircraft and helicopters. An MoU has been signed by HAL with Boeing in December 2007 which envisages exploration of business opportunities principally relating to defence related work packages.
The proposal regarding procurement of Long Range Maritime Reconnaissance (LRMR) aircraft is in progress.
Such MoUs are expected to benefit HAL through enhanced export opportunities, development of new technologies and processes; and implementation of best practices and skills for global competitiveness.
