General Atomics partners with Bharat Forge

General Atomics Aeronautical Systems (GA-ASI), a division of the company based in San Diego, disclosed its collaboration with Bharat Forge Ltd. on Wednesday. Both businesses' capabilities are likely to grow significantly as a result of the deal, which is also expected to give the Indian big, unmanned aircraft industry a boost.

Additionally, it will assist India in creating a high-end drone manufacturing environment. India will have the chance to produce main landing gear parts, subassemblies, and assemblies of remotely piloted aircraft as a result of the move.

General Atomics Global Corporation CEO Vivek Lall was quoted by PTI as saying, "GA-ASI is eagerly looking forward to cooperating with Bharat Forge in the important sector of aerostructure manufacture.

According to a press release, Bharat Forge, which has more than 50 years of experience manufacturing a variety of high-performance, critical safety components, provides full-service supply capacity from idea to product design, engineering, manufacture, testing, and validation.

The next generation of the most technologically advanced unmanned aerial vehicles will be built in collaboration with Bharat Forge, whose expertise in the forging industry is well-known throughout the world and whose outstanding contributions to the aerospace industry have motivated us to do so, according to Lall.

Aerospace is a very "technology heavy" industry, according to Baba Kalyani, Chairman and Managing Director of Bharat Forge Limited, and it depends on product integrity, dependability, and zero defect.

"This is a distinct culture that necessitates a significant emphasis on people and procedures. Our partnership with GA-ASI, which is a component of our Aerospace Growth Strategy, is a powerful testament to our culture at Bharat Forge Aerospace's commitment to assimilating and demonstrating the same, as partners to General Atomics, in creating India Atmanirbhar,”said Kalyani.
