“One hundred hours of flight testing gives us an extensively tested indigenous aircraft architecture. Kaal Bhairava has demonstrated its short-field capability, strong climb performance and operation in demanding wind conditions. With a 1,200-km-class design and 8-10 hours of endurance, we believe the platform has significant potential for both the Indian Navy requirement and international markets.”
