They produce planes for the Indian Air Force
The United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) may begin production of SSJ 100 aircraft at the HAL plant in India, as stated by the head of the UAC, Yuri Slyusar, in an interview with the Rossiya-24 TV channel.
We still believe that, as an import, at the facilities of the HAL plant, which produces combat aircraft for the Indian Air Force, where they make Su-30 aircraft, more than 270 aircraft were made there, this, of course, is such a large base, trained personnel, this equipment, these are well-established processes. We could start producing SSJ aircraft there for the Indian market in a fairly short time.

He added that at the moment Russia is negotiating with Indian colleagues: “It seems to me that the negotiations are going on even more in the interests of the Indian side than ours, because we have our Russian Superjet, and we will produce and produce it. For India, this is a major technological leap forward.”
Back in February, the first information appeared that the UAC was discussing with India the localization of the production of the SSJ 100, and also talking about cooperation on the Il-114 and MS-21 projects.
