planned

The AMCA programme facility is being established by the Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) under the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) at Puttaparthi in Sri Sathya Sai district, Andhra Pradesh. It will serve as the Core Integration, Development and Flight Testing Complex for India's indigenous fifth-generation fighter aircraft programme, focusing on stealth systems, advanced avionics, and integrated combat capabilities. The complex will span nearly 650 acres and is expected to be a national hub for aircraft integration, validation, flight testing, and certification activities, significantly strengthening India's aerospace infrastructure.
