Dr. Devanahalli Krishnamurthy Sunil (DKS) has officially assumed the role of Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) of Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL). His appointment comes at a crucial time for the state-owned aerospace giant, as it faces challenges with the delivery schedule of the Tejas Mk1A fighter jet and the ongoing development of the Tejas MkII.

DKS will be tasked with addressing the delays in the Tejas Mk1A delivery schedule and securing a deal for 97 additional aircraft with the Indian Air Force (IAF). Additionally, he will oversee the critical phase of the Tejas MkII program, which is set to commence assembly next month.

A key priority for DKS will be to accelerate the development of the Tejas MkII. He aims to achieve a rollout by late 2025 and complete the first flight in 2026. This ambitious timeline will ensure that the Tejas MkII remains on track to meet its intended operational requirements.

DKS brings a wealth of experience to the role and is expected to play a pivotal role in guiding HAL through these challenging times. His leadership will be instrumental in ensuring the successful execution of HAL’s projects and the continued growth of India’s aerospace industry.
