Bengaluru: US President Barack Obama will soon fly in a new helicopter whose cabin has been made in India.
US helicopter manufacturer Sikorsky had entered into an agreement with TATA Advanced Systems in 2009 for the manufacture of cabins for the company's S-92 helicopters, which is used by a number of VVIPs in the world including the US President.
The 100th cabin under this deal would be delivered soon, Samir Mehta, President of Sikorsky's military systems, told reporters here at the Aero India show.
Sikorsky helicopters had last year secured a multi-billion dollar contract to replace the entire presidential fleet with 21 new helicopters. The helicopter used by Obama is S-92.
