On display at IAF Museum Palam. The Ajeet wears the emblem of No. 2 Sqn. "Winged Arrows," which operated the type from 1983-91. Drop tanks are fitted to the external pylons. Successor to the remarkable Gnat, the Ajeet had a slightly heavier empty weight at 2,360 kg. Just 89 were built or updated by HAL.
