The HA-300P research glider was to provide advance information on the probable flight characteristics of the powered aircraft.
Rolled out of Military Factory No. 36 at Helouan for the first time in 1963, the Messerschmitt designed supersonic interceptor was expected to commence flight trials with an Indian test pilot. Development on the Hispano HA 300, or, XC 6, began in Spain and was subsequently shelved. The fighter is powered by two 4,850 lb.s.t. (2 200 kgp) Bristol Siddeley Orpheus 703 turbojets for initial flight trials, but the definitive version is expected to be powered by a pair of 7,000 lb.s.t. (3 175 kgp) turbojets of a type developed in Egypt by Ferdinand Brandner. Whereas the fighter is only likely to attain about Mach 1.2 with Orpheus engines, a maximum speed of the order of Mach 2.2 is anticipated with the Brandner designed engine which, if successful, may also power the Hindustan HF 24. Basically of clipped delta planform, and featuring a long, needle nose, the fighter has side by side mounted engines, a narrow track, fuselage housed undercarriage, and a Martin Baker zero altitude ejection seat.

HA 200 Saeta development potential as a lightweight ground attack aircraft lead, via the two seat HA 200E Super Saeta with more powerful Marbore engines, to the purpose built, single seat HA 220 Super Saeta, with increased armour, self¬-sealing fuel tanks and an additional fuel tank in the rear cockpit, replacing the second seat. Powered by two 1,058 lb thrust Marbore VI engines, the rear cockpit is used to accommodate an additional fuel tank. Armament can comprise a variety of bombs, guns, and rockets on under-¬fuselage/wing stations. Two Browning M 3 machine guns. Prototype (XC.10C) flown for first time on April 25, 1970. EdeA designation C.10C, later A.10C. Twenty five were built. Military Users: Egypt, Spain.
HA 220 Super Saeta / C-10C Wing span: 35 ft 10 in (10.93 m) Maximum speed: 435 mph (700 km/h).
Hispano decided to build a basic jet trainer using two Marbore II engines, and designed the HA.200 Saeta (Arrow) Spain’s first jet aircraft which used many components from the HA.100 Trianaa, including the wings and rear fuselage.
Willy Messerschmitt supervised the design. The engines, mounted in the lower forward fuselage, were fed from an air intake in the nose, and exhausted from two nozzles below the trailing edge of the wing roots. The HA.200 stored its fuel in two wing and two fuselage tanks.
Two prototypes were built and first flew on 12 August 1955 with the Fernando Juan Valiente. 190 were built, both by Hispano and under a licence agreement in Egypt (as the Helwan HA 200B AI Kahira).
Prototype HA-200 Saeta EC-AMM
From the autumn of 1957 an experimental program was initiated by INTA. Ten pre-production aircraft were ordered by the Spanish Air Force, of which 5 will be transformed into HA-200 A (E14A Ejército del Aire in). The first aircraft was to fly on July 21, 1960, the rest be be delivered until 1962.
An additional series of 30 HA-200 A was built. The first of them flew October 11, 1962, the others being delivered between 1963 and 1965. In April 1965 flew the first HA-200 B (C10B in Ejército del Aire service) of which 55 were built and incorporated in the Ejército del Aire over 1965-1967.
The Hispano HA-200-R1 Saeta (two turbomeca Marbore IIA turbojet engine)
Hispano’s Saeta fulfilled jet training, ground attack training and, in the dedicated single seat HA.220 model, limited strike roles in Spainish service. The indigenous CASA 101 Aviojet provided the replacement, deliveries commencing in 1980.
The Egyptian aircraft were supplanted by the Aero L 29 Delfin.
HA 200R Saeta Prototype EC AMM first flew on August 12, 1955, followed by second prototype. Spanish Air Force (Ejercito del Aire EdeA) designation XE.14 for the prototypes and E.14 for 10 pre-production examples, five of which were brought up to HA 200A status.

The indigenously designed and developed Advanced Light Helicopter is a twin-engine, multi-role, multi-new generation helicopter in the 5.8-tonne weight class. The multi role helicopter is powered by two Shakti Engines.
The features that are unique to LCH are sleek and narrow fuselage, tri-cycle crashworthy landing gear, crashworthy and self-sealing fuel tanks, armour protection and low visibility features which makes the helicopter lethal, agile and survivable.
Indigenously-developed weapon system integrated helicopter Rudra was to make its maiden appearance in the Republic Day parade on Rajpath on January 26 2018.
It is equipped with a 20 mm Turret Gun and 70 mm Rocket System and has a facility for air to air missile system.
The LCH is fitted with Self Protection Suite consisting of Radar/Laser Missile warning systems and Countermeasures dispensing system.
In 1983 the LCA, or Tejas as it was named, was conceived by the Indian Air Force to carry out frontline tactical missions and replace Indian Air Force MiG-21 jets. The first LCA prototype (Technology Demonstrator TD-1) rolled out on 17 November 1995. With the first flight of its Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) put back nearly four years after its roll-out, the program appears to be plagued with difficulties and delays. The prototype eventually first flew on 4 January 2001. The first flight of the LCA had to be postponed until Aeronautical Development Establishment (ADE) finished development of a new flight control system and system integration test were completed. After again much delay the second prototype (TD-2) made its maiden flight on 6 June 2002, also powered by the GE 404 engine.
The Hindustan Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) had two aircraft flying by the 2003 Paris Air Show and had complet¬ed some 80 flights with no major changes required to the airframe. Five prototypes were planned and eight limited series pro¬duction aircraft were to be delivered in 2006 for evaluation by the Indian Air Force. Despite major delays, the technology demonstration phase of the project has been completed and construction of further prototypes is underway. The first, Prototype Vehicle PV-1, joined the program in 2003. The fourth LCA, PV-2, was completed in 2005 and was first flown on 1 December 2005.
Built by partners Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) and Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), the LCA design features digital fly-by-wire control system, multi-mode model, digital ‘glass’ cockpit, hands on throttle and stick (HOTAS), FLIR, and static instability. The aircraft has a delta wing design without any tailplanes or foreplanes and a total of seven external weapon stations. The two LCA technology demonstrators were powered by the US supplied General Electric GE F404-F2J3 turbofan. But because of the embargo placed in 1998 by the USA on the engine as a result of the nuclear tests conducted by India in 1998, the production aircraft were planned to be fitted with the Indian Kaveri GTX-35VS turbofan. The embargo included the Lockheed-Martin fly-by-wire flight control system. In May 2005, the Tejas flight, now consisting of TD-1, TD-2 and the first Prototype Vehicle PV-1, completed 400 sorties. A fourth prototype, PV-2, was scheduled to make its first flight in June 2005. It has reduced structural weight and new avionics and cockpit displays.
The Hindustan Intermediate Jet Trainer (UT or WT 36) took 18 months from metal cutting to roll out with a first flight three months later, on March 7, 2003.
An attack helicopter derivative of Dhruv, displayed in model form at the Paris Air Show, June 2001 as LAH (light attack helicopter) proposal, but was restyled LCH, signifying light combat.
The original slimmed-down ‘gunship’ fuselage was discarded and the basic Dhruv airframc retained except for the forward fuselage modified to tandem crew seating. Officially launched on 5 February 2003, the LCH replaced the earlier LOH programme, which was met by a foreign design. The LCH was scheduled to fly in 2005, and intended to augment, and eventually replace Indian Air Force Mi-35 fleet.
The design features a four-blade hingeless main rotor with swept blade tips. Intended for anti-tank, close air support, air-to-air combat and scout roles, extensive use of composites is to reduce radar signature.
Landing gear is a non-retractable tricycle type and power is by two 895kW Turbomeca/HAL TM333-2C2 Ardiden 1H turboshafts (Indian name Shakii) with FADEC, derated to 798kW.
Systems include a four-axis autostabilisation system; anti-resonance isolation system (ARIS).
Armament is an undernose 20mm cannon and stub-wing hardpoints for ASMs, AAMs or rocket launchers.
