Flying Wedge Defense And Aerospace Secures DGCA Type Certification

Flying Wedge Defense and Aerospace said it has achieved DGCA-type certification based on indigenous technology.

Flying Wedge Defense and Aerospace announced it has become the first-ever company to secure DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) Type Certification for indigenous Unmanned Aircraft technology. Notably, no drone, aircraft, or aeroplane can operate in India without DGCA-
type certification.

As per the company officials, only a few companies have successfully obtained DGCA-type certification within this sector where the technology has been obtained via transfer of technology agreements with companies based in China.

Flying Wedge Defense and Aerospace says it has achieved DGCA-type certification based on indigenous technology.

“We are really proud that finally India has an Indigenous flying object which is air worthy. India has always been dependent on imported technology/products. We don’t want any company in India to go through what Go Airways have undergone,” Sujas Tejaskanda, CEO, Flying Wedge Defense and Aerospace, said.
