83 Tejas Mk-1A aircraft are awaiting American F404 engines, causing a 9-month delay and uncertainty over the indigenous fighter aircraft program. With rising concerns over delays, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) aims to deliver the first aircraft by August 15.
Tejas Mark 1A program is a pivotal project for the IAF.
But why the delay? Who is to blame?
Host Dev Goswami and defence expert Shiv Aroor explain how these delays stem from production bottlenecks, certification issues, and a U.S. angle affecting the delivery of GE F404 engines-essential components for these jets. The hosts discuss the impact on the IAF, which urgently needs these jets due to its depleting squadron strength and the imminent phasing out of MiG 21 squadrons.
The duo also ponders whether "jugaad"-India's frugal innovation-suits defence, sharing when it's beneficial and when it falls short.
This and more in the 31st episode of In Our Defence.

@jonswap9097 Месяц назад

Regarding the "reserve engine", it is normal in aircraft development worldwide for prototypes to use an existing engine, while a new engine is being developed with the aircraft falling back to the existing engine if the new engine fails to meet requirements. Failures and delays in engine development is common, and in countries which have a lot of expertise in aero-engine development this is accepted. In the case of Tejas, the F404 would have been used until the first engine replacement was due and then replaced by the Kaveri. The delay in the Tejas programme was due to the sanctions by the US and western countries in the wake of the Pokran nuclear tests, which nobody expected (not the IAF, not HAL, not DRDO, and not the procurement teams). The delay was caused by the fact that there was NO engine for Tejas, and it was some time before the Indian government was confident enough to rely on engines from the US. The wariness of the government over the F414 engines over ToT and continuation with the original Kavari development is a sign that the Indian government is wary of US and western sanctions again in the wake of US threats of possible sanctions recently over trade with Russia, and who can blame them given what has repeatedly happened in recent years. One cannot presume that something like what happened in terms of sanctions will not happen again - only the government of India knows the potential risks. Therefore a prototype engine which is also a fallback engine, and an indigenous engine (not a reserve engine) as adopted in the west should be what India follows.

@ChandraGuptaMourya Месяц назад

Shiv was talking about "know how" in context of jet engines. Any amount of "know how" wouldn't help one to design a new engine. What you need is "know why". You will get " know why" when you design, develop, test & fail with your own engine. It is very easy to blame GTRE about "failure" of Kaveri engines. GTRE was working with a shoestring budget. They don't have their own test bed. They had to lug engines to Russia for testing. It was criminal on part of governments(both NDA & UPA) to not fund GTRE Governments thought so called "strategic partnership" would be a short cut for something as critical as engines. US is NOT a trustworthy ally. They sabotaged Lavi fighter jet program of their closest ally Israel. They sabotaged LCA in aftermath of Pokharan nuclear tests. They confiscated the entire CLAW software for LCA that was undergoing tests in US. We had to redevelop everything from memory. Yet we in our infinite wisdom thought that US would be a trustworthy partner for LCA MK1 & MK2 engines. They didn't learn lessons when US denied us vaccine APIs(that they didn't need) in the midst of COVID epidemic. I am pessimistic about the prospects of LCA. It will be yet another failure of Indian aviation pretty much like HAL Marut. I will only blame our decision makers to let them be fooled by kumbhaya of strategic partnership with USA. They will NEVER learn. The governments of 90s kept funding ISRO's cryogenic engines. They didn't stop when US arm twisted Yeltsin to stop supply of cryogenic engines to India. The biggest irony is that then Senator Biden played a pivotal role in sabotaging ISRO Glavcosmos deal. Now GE HAL engine deal is put to pasture under President Biden. Too much of a coincidence. No?

American have released that by supplying 404 & 414 engines they shot in their own foot. They want to phase out F16 manufacturing and use that facility for next Gen aircraft but they also want to keep F16 in service, so ideally they want to shift F16 facility to India in form of F21 the upgrade of F16 but Tejas would be of same or similar capabilities. Now taking into consideration the intrest of both parties a middle golden path.

They mentioned once in heir discussion that engine were taken to Russia for high altitude test with IL 76 test aircraft. like this, number of this type of test facilities were required to be built inside India for speedier and effective development & that needs huge fund to be released by the Govt & that never happened. Compere to other successful engine development programme of France, even China. How huge fund they had release for their engine development process. And ours, compere nothing in front of them. This is like "ghar meh ata nehi aap butter nun ki chahat rakh rahe ho".

Some are obvious (e.g. aircraft maintenance, Signals, EME, etc.), but some others are not so obvious (e.g. infantry and artillery). Too much focus is on getting these guys into CAPFs, but I feel we may be missing a trick by not planning to use their skills in the real economy.

These Bastards don't even add spare manufacturing facilities. HAL isn't serious and need to be penalized.

Why would anyone inc rop/mfg facilities without solid orders?

DRDO/GTRE should continue to work on Kaveri engine with private sector companies like Godrej, L&T, Kalyani Group . As a Jet Engine is all about exotic materials and innovative ways to use them, these companies have a lot of experience in working with exotic materials for ISRO. The spinoffs of Kaveri Engine will still save a lot of foreign exchange in the long term. Remember all this is happening without a dedicated test bed aircraft for flight testing these engines in India rather than taking them to Russia every few years. Also, the MoD and IAF should work together on MRFA to build 200+ Rafale's in India (Dassault + Mahindra) . This will allow for lower per aircraft cost and time to indigenize the parts for Rafale. On Rifles front it boggles one's mind that we are looking abroad when companies like SSS Defence are making good products in India and exporting it. Perhaps the army will wake up once US starts buying them similar to optics from Tonbo Imaging :)!

Please no more rafales or tejas , lets work on tebdf or amca , why shld we buy outdated tech , by the time we order and they get delivered world wouldve moved to 7 th gen development.

@@oscarmicheal3677how many have moved to 5th gen? Theybstarted in 1990's

Or is the US trying to research the recent Tejas crash which is believed to be due to engine seizure? Do they want to retrospect?

So we should make our own engines, why depend on others and complain if they don't deliver.

Government is to blame for not funding our own engine

Yes, you guys keep on Blaming rest of the world for incompetency of HAL. More than 40 year these guys have spent on what, creating an Aircraft Shell without Engine. These Aircraft will only be ready when the Technology incorporated on them become Obsolete. Guys Wake up and smell the coffee, atleast by now Heads should have started rolling for keeping our Airspace vulnerable. Until and unless we make the Depart Head responsible, this is going to remain the same. It's time to make some Radical shift in the strategy.

Let me put it straight that you guys haven't in you to disectt the real reasons why GTRE hasn't been able to develop the kaveri engine. SO IN FUTURE DONT EVER RAISE OR DISCUSS THIS TOPIC .

Very surprising- the anchor seems to know that engine delivery is not a diplomatic or trade issue but a genuine supply chain issue. Whitewash what you will- you shall only lose credibility. Maybe the trade off is very significant monetary or in kind, encouragement.
