What the fair covers

Aircraft systems, components and aerospace manufacturing are the subject. Biennial aerospace and defence exhibition organised by the Ministry of Defence with aircraft, avionics, defence systems and flying displays. That shapes both the exhibitor mix and the questions worth preparing before you arrive.

Dates, venue and getting there

The fair runs from 8 February to 12 February 2027 at Air Force Station Yelahanka in Bengaluru. It runs for 5 days, which is usually enough to cover several product areas without rushing. Bengaluru is India's technology centre and its fairs reflect that, with a stronger representation of engineering and electronics suppliers than other Indian cities. The airport is some distance from the centre, so allow extra time for arrival and departure.

Planning your visit

Attending in person allows direct comparison of build quality and finish across manufacturers. Technical staff are usually available to discuss homologation, parts supply and adaptation for different markets. For Aero India, that means preparing ahead of the February dates and arriving with a target list of stands.

Language and interpreting support

English is used routinely in Indian business and most exhibitors will handle commercial discussions in it comfortably. Where language support helps is less about translation and more about local knowledge: understanding regional supplier bases, verifying company credentials and navigating logistics is where an experienced local contact adds most. An interpreter already working in Bengaluru saves further time simply by knowing the venue and how to move around it.

After the fair

After the fair, verification focuses on standards and parts. Check homologation and certification against your market, confirm spare part availability and lead times, and arrange a production inspection before a first shipment.
