Re: LCA News and Discussions, 22-Oct-2013

My list: - Is there any plan for flight testing Kaveri on a TD/PV - Is IAF taking any initiative for indigenous engine development, where China is stealing a march over us - Derby is there because we are using MMR/EL/M-2032 and integration is easier.

Re: Kaveri & aero-engine discussion

Re: Kaveri & aero-engine discussion

Shakti was never a transfer of technology, it was a contract given to Turbomeca to develop an engine for Indian conditions with low maintainance and low life cycle cost with high power.

Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
