Airbus, Tata to manufacture helicopters in India for HEMS Ecosystem

In a strategic partnership, Airbus and Tata will jointly manufacture helicopters in India to bolster the government's Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS) ecosystem. The initiative aims to enhance medical transportation and emergency response capabilities across the country.

This collaboration aligns with the government's efforts to strengthen the healthcare infrastructure and improve accessibility to remote areas. The manufacturing partnership signifies a significant step towards self-reliance in the aerospace sector, fostering indigenous production capabilities.

The helicopters manufactured through this collaboration will play a crucial role in HEMS operations, facilitating swift and efficient medical assistance during emergencies. The joint venture leverages Airbus's expertise in aerospace technology and Tata's established presence in the Indian industrial landscape.

As part of the 'Make in India' initiative, this collaboration contributes to localising helicopter production, reducing dependence on imports, and promoting economic growth. The partnership is expected to create job opportunities and stimulate the development of ancillary industries in the aerospace sector.

This venture not only strengthens the aviation manufacturing ecosystem in India but also addresses the critical need for advanced medical transportation solutions, ultimately benefiting the nation's healthcare infrastructure.
