The HAL LCA (light combat aircraft) Tejas is a domestically produced Indian delta-wing multirole fighter jet designed by India’s Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) and built by India’s Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL). Tejas was built to serve the Indian Air Force and represents a significant step in India’s quest to develop its domestic defense industry. As with many fighter jet programs, the Tejas has faced delays, but it seems that the Indian Air Force will once again start taking delivery of the fighter jets soon (deliveries have been delayed due to General Electric’s supply chain woes).

While the US President’s flagship executive transport comprises a pair of modified Boeing 747s, other countries have opted for smaller jets – though still large relative to other nations. Like the UK, France, and some other nations, Canada’s flagship executive transport is now the Airbus A330.The Canadian government aims to convert all of these to multi-role tanker transports (MRTTs) in the future. The Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) will eventually have 9 of these converted A330s in its fleet, with some having come 2nd-hand from Kuwait Airways, and others being purpose built for the Canadian Forces.
