Question

TodaySprint · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Option C: IIT Bombay. The Indian Air Force signed three contracts with IIT Bombay on 27 May 2026 for predictive maintenance technologies for the Su-30MKI fleet. The agreements focus on prognostic and prescriptive maintenance systems for military aviation applications. Su-30MKI is a twin-engine multirole fighter aircraft developed by Sukhoi and manufactured in India by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited under licence production. Predictive maintenance uses sensor data, diagnostics, and analytics to forecast equipment failures before they occur. Prognostic maintenance estimates the remaining useful life of aircraft systems, while prescriptive maintenance recommends maintenance actions. The maintenance technologies were developed using indigenous expertise from IIT Bombay under India’s defence R&D framework. The collaboration supports the Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative promoting self-reliance in strategic sectors. The agreements aim to improve aircraft availability, mission readiness, and maintenance efficiency of the Su-30MKI fleet.
