Correct option is A

Correct Answer: (a) Hindustan Aeronautics Limited

• The indigenous LCA (Light Combat Aircraft) Tejas fighter jets were developed and produced by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), a public sector aerospace company in India.

• Tejas is a multi-role, lightweight, single-engine tactical fighter aircraft, designed to replace India's aging fighter fleet.

• Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL):

  1. Established in 1940, it plays a key role in the development of aircraft, helicopters, and aerospace components in India.

  2. Tejas is one of the major achievements of HAL, showcasing India’s capabilities in aerospace engineering and defense production.

  3. HAL is also involved in collaboration with foreign companies for aircraft parts and technology transfer.

• Bharat Dynamics Limited (BDL):

  • Specializes in defense missile systems, not in aircraft production.

• India Aeronautics Limited:

  • This is not an existing entity; may be a confusion with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited.
