Re: Military Flight Safety

Indeed a sad event.
I was just wondering C 130 J being a new one, would it still be under warranty,
What does the manufacturer do if its due to technical problem the flight has crashed.
Not sure how it works for military equipment.

Re: Kaveri & aero-engine discussion

IAF-HAL team to visit Russia

While the Russian version will have a Russian engine, the Indian version could have a western engine. The aircraft is likely to be operational around 2015.

Can some one explain this. Thank you

Hi All,
Does any one know what happened to Kabini core engine tested in Russia?
Why can’t we re-negotiate with French about the requirements as per the IAF requirements? Is it possible?
Please let me know?
