Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) is reportedly close to finalizing a major deal worth approximately $900 million to supply six aerial refueling tankers to the Indian Air Force. The agreement has been in the works for over a year, according to Indian media reports.

As part of the deal, 30% of the work to convert commercial aircraft into refueling tankers will be carried out in India by local companies. This condition was reportedly met by IAI a year ago, at which point it was said to be the sole remaining bidder in the tender process.
