After years of experience with Russian and British aircraft Bangalore-based Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. (HAL) is all set to get an opportunity to have an experience with the French fighters.
As part of Centre's upgrade package for 51 Mirage- 2000 multi-role fighters 47 will be upgraded at the HAL.
The Government has signed a billion Euro contract with the fighter's manufacturer for upgrading the existing three squadronss of Mirage to the level of Mirage-2000-V used by the French Air Force. The process is expected to increase the fighter's lifespan by another 25 years.
The airframe will be re-wired and re-equipped.
