AXISCADES Technologies Ltd and European missile systems giant MBDA have deepened their decade-long partnership to support India’s defence manufacturing goals. The collaboration will scale up joint projects, enhance local capabilities, and reinforce the ‘Make in India’ and ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ initiatives in strategic electronics and missile systems.
AXISCADES Technologies Ltd, through its subsidiary AXISCADES Aerospace & Technologies Pvt. Ltd., has announced a major expansion of its strategic partnership with MBDA, a leading European missile systems company. The move marks a significant step in advancing India’s indigenous defence manufacturing capabilities.
The partnership, which began with the co-development of test benches for MBDA’s MICA missile, now encompasses broader cooperation in missile launchers, depot-level maintenance, and built-to-spec solutions. The companies aim to scale up operations as MBDA’s global footprint grows, with AXISCADES serving as a key Indian Offset Partner.
