In February it signed a memorandum of understanding with Sikorsky to manufacture cabins for Sikorsky S-92 helicopters as well as a memorandum of understanding with Israel Aerospace Industries to manufacture defence and aerospace products.
In February it also signed an agreement with Boeing to establish a joint venture in India that would make components for Boeing military aircraft and later possibly commercial aircraft. In addition, that same month ATI reported that Tata Motors would be making titanium and composite floor beams for Boeing 787s."
