These systems will be called as Netra-Mk2 where the aircrafts will be legacy Air India aircrafts and antenna array units will be supplied by DRDO's Lab Center For Airborne Systems (LCFAS).
The modified aircrafts are now birthed at Hindon airport.
DRDO and IAF acquired six aircrafts and first aircraft was already delivered last year as you can see on your screen 4 more aircrafts were delivered by DRDO in last couple of months, which are currently parked at Hindon airport.
