Tejas has been designed and manufactured by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited and Aeronautical Development Agency. The inclusion of this single-engine fighter will allow the Indian Airforce to replace the MiG-21 Bison aircraft. In December 2017, the proposal (RFP) for 83 Tejas aircraft was issued by the Indian Air Force. Significantly, out of the 83 Tejas aircraft, 10 will be a two-seater and the Indian Air Force will use these aircraft for training its pilots.
