IAF hopes to begin its first course on the Pilatus trainers in July, by when it would have received 14 of them. NEW DELHI: Upset with the huge delay in development of an indigenous basic trainer aircraft (BTA), the IAF has now formally asked the defence ministry to approve its acquisition case for 37 more Swiss Pilatus PC-7 to add to the 75 such planes already ordered for Rs 2,896 crore last year.
