Its well-researched and informative magazines on Defence and Aerospace sector have served to shape an educated opinion of our military personnel, policy makers and the public alike. I wish SP's Publication team continued success, fair winds and following seas in all future endeavour!"
Since, its inception in 1964, SP Guide Publications has consistently demonstrated commitment to high-quality journalism in the aerospace and defence sectors, earning a well-deserved reputation as Asia's largest media house in this domain. I wish SP Guide Publications continued success in its pursuit of excellence.
Indian Navy MiG-29K Squadron commissioned
Three years after they began arriving in the country, the Indian Navy's MiG-29K/KUB shipborne multi-role fighters finally have a home squadron: INAS 303 'Black Panthers' at INS Hansa, Dabolim.
Commanded by Captain A.D. Theophilus, a veteran Sea Harrier pilot and naval aviator, the new squadron will spend the next eight months continuing training and routing flying from the Dabolim airfield before beginning shipborne operations on the INS Vikramaditya early next year after the ship is delivered. The Indian Navy has ordered 45 MiG-29K/KUBs—enough for two squadrons of the frontline maritime fighter. A second squadron will be raised once deliveries are complete. Operations will also begin off the shore-based test facility shortly.
