Reliance Defence forms strategic partnership with Coastal Mechanics to address Rs 20,000 crore defence MRO market
This collaboration aims to deliver end-to-end MRO, upgrade, and lifecycle support solutions for the Indian Armed Forces. The focus will be on a wide range of critical military platforms, including over 100 Jaguar and MiG-29 fighter jets, the Apache attack helicopter fleet, L-70 air defence guns, and other legacy systems that need long-term support and modernisation.
The partnership aligns with the Indian military's growing preference for extending the life of existing assets through upgrades, rather than replacing them entirely. This marks a strategic shift toward performance-based logistics, offering high-value, long-term business opportunities.
As part of the agreement, Reliance Defence and CMI will also set up a joint venture (JV) at MIHAN in Maharashtra. The facility will cater to both domestic and international markets, providing full-scale MRO and upgrade services for air and land-based defence platforms.
Coastal Mechanics, known for supplying critical components to the U.S. Air Force and Army, brings global-level manufacturing expertise and internationally recognised certifications into the Indian aerospace and defence space.
This collaboration is a big step toward boosting India's self-reliance in defence under the Government's 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat' and 'Make in India' missions. With this move, Reliance Defence also takes a firm stride toward its goal of becoming one of India's top three defence exporters.
