Meanwhile, amid the growing air power of China and Pakistan and the shortage of fighter aircraft faced by the Indian Air Force, the Defence Ministry has formed a high-level committee under Defence Secretary Rajesh Kumar Singh to assess the overall capability development of the service through indigenous design, development, and acquisition projects. Government officials told ANI that the committee was formed after the Indian Air Force made detailed presentations to Defence Minister Rajnath Singh during the Air Force Commanders' Conference last month in the national capital.

During the conference, top Defence Ministry officials were briefed about the futuristic combat aircraft requirements and the gaps that need to be filled in the capability the force aims to develop in the coming years to tackle the threat perception faced on both fronts. The officials said the committee includes other senior members of the Defence Ministry, including the Secretary (Defence Production), Sanjeev Kumar; Defence Research and Development Organisation chief Dr. Samir V. Kamat; and Deputy Chief of Air Staff Air Marshal T. Singh, who serves as the committee's member secretary. (ANI)
