Bengaluru:7/4/25: The Ministry of Defence has signed a contract with Bharat Electronics Limited, Bengaluru for the acquisition of Electronic Warfare (EW) Suites and aircraft modification kits as well as their installation on Mi-17 V5 helicopters, along with associated equipment, for the Indian Air Force at an overall cost of Rs 2,385.36 crore. Under the Buy (Indian-Indigenously Designed Developed and Manufactured) category, the contract was inked in the presence of Defence Secretary Shri Rajesh Kumar Singh in New Delhi on April 07, 2025.

This state-of-the-art EW Suite will considerably enhance operational survivability of the helicopters in hostile environments. The majority of sub-assemblies and parts will be sourced from indigenous manufacturers. The project will encourage active participation of Indian electronics and associated industries, including MSMEs. The Suite for Mi-17 V5 is a significant leap forward in developing indigenous EW capabilities, making the country Aatmanirbhar in consonance with the Make-in-India initiative.
