With its registration IN091 covered with white duct tape, this shiny L-39 was seen at the static display show of Aero India. The aircraft is used by the Indian Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) for various tests, adversary training and target towing in support of Indian Armed Forces. The Albatros is assigned a Indian Navy serial for ease of use without getting into civil certification hassles. This L-39 is former NX39MX which was cancelled from the US civil register in December 2020, and exported to India.

A Chetak from INAS 321 "Angels" embarked on INS Viraat at anchorage off Visakhapatnam. This must have been among the final flights from the deck, as the great ship was put out of IN service on 23 July 2016, later to be decommissioned. She formerly served as R12 HMS Hermes, flagship during the Falklands War.

Working into the evening on reassembling the last flying Tu-142M that served with INAS 312 "Albatross" to become the second such museum at Kolkata after the one at Visakhapatnam. The outermost sections of the wings have not been attached, and the nacelles for the massive Kuznetsov NK-12MP turboprop engines are being readied for attachment. The reassembly was no easy task. This was the progress prior to the pandemic lockdown in March 2020.

Preserved on the INS Vikrant. The ship was opened to the public as a museum by the Indian Navy in 2001 after it had been decommissioned. The Government of Maharashtra was unable to find a partner to operate the museum on a permanent, long-term basis and the museum was closed after it was deemed unsafe for the public in 2012. Scrapping of the ship commenced in 2014.

With its Fowler flaps set at 5 deg, this Dornier from INAS 310 "Cobras" takes to the air at around 95 kts during Aero India 2021 amidst IAF roundels. The unit was commissioned on the Alizé at Hyéres by Amb. Nawab Ali Yavar Jung on 21 March 1961 as IN's first ship-borne ASW/MR unit, flying off INS Vikrant. The "Cobras" transitioned to the Do-228 in Aug. 1991. True to their motto 'First In and Last Out', INAS 310 remains the Indian Navy's most decorated unit, having received three unit citations.
