it should be our endeavour to first develop a reliable engine for this aircraft. this is what that matters the most. it is a matter of great shame for us that kaveri engine developed for LCA failed to perform.
Engine is the most difficult component to design. India should first nail down on the first engine to use and design around it. It's no shame to build a domestic plane around a foreign engine.
If India follow your suggestion, than India should shelve this project completely until the engine is almost ready as there is no tellin when such an engine will be ready.
