A model of the modified Indian version of the Russian T-50 fifth generation fighter aircraft (FGFA) will be on display for the first time at Aero India 2013, starting on February 6. The picture on the left is from September last year -- a 1:15.5 model of a modified single-seater FGFA by HAL. It is likely that the same model will be on display at the show.
