Singapore Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen on Tuesday flew in India's indigenous fighter aircraft Tejas, and called it a "very good plane".

"Privileged to be flown on the Tejas, India's own designed and manufactured fighter aircraft. A very good plane," the Singapore minister said in a tweet.

He was flown in the plane at the Indian Air Force Station in Kalaikunda (West Bengal), the Defence Ministry said.

Hen, who is on a tour to India, will arrive in New Delhi on Wednesday to hold second Singapore-India Defence Ministers' Dialogue with his Indian counterpart Nirmala Sitharaman.
