The Indian Navy is prepared to buy 15 US-2i Amphibious Search and Rescue (SAR) aircraft at cost of $1.65 billion. It is expected that these amphibious aircraft will be stationed in the Andaman and Nicobar islands.
Japan and India have decided to form a Joint Working Group to accelerate progress in the discussions and preparations for a road map for the development of the Indian aircraft industry through US-2 amphibian aircraft cooperation including the transfer of the aircraft and its technology to India.
This is the first time since World War-II - that ended seven decades ago - that Japan will be selling military hardware. Following its defeat, Japan imposed an embargo on sale of weapons and military equipment.
