GTRE and Klimov agree to develop Multi-Axis Thrust Vectoring Nozzle
Published April 1, 2015 | By admin
SOURCE: IDRW NEWS NETWORK (INN)

India’s Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE) and Russian JSC Rosoboronexport/JSC Klimov have entered into a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for joint development of Multi-Axis Thrust Vectoring Nozzle for future generation aero-engine applications.

MoU was signed during Aero India-2015 held in Bengaluru during 19-22 February 2015. Dr K Tamilmani, DS, DG (Aero), DRDO and Dr CP Ramanarayanan, OS, Director, GTRE and the Russian team were part of the memorandum of understanding (MoU).

According to Sources close to idrw.org Klimov have offered to develop thrust vectoring nozzle (TVN) technology based on the universal KLITV (KLImov Thrust Vector) technology which can be customised for fitment on any jet engines.

Sources also informed that thrust vectoring nozzle (TVN) technology offered can be matted with engines of any OEM’s even if engines are from United states. India will commence development work on Homegrown 5th generation fighter aircraft project which as per IAF request will have thrust vectoring nozzle (TVN).

India is yet to select engines for AMCA, but Russians have assured India that even if India selects American or European engines for AMCA Project, they can customise it for their engines. While Europeans have developed their own TVN technology for Eurojet EJ200 engines and Americans to have their own technology.

Good news hope they make a good engine this time

Maybe they should re imagine the name.

@sancho can you comment on combat radius? Your take?

As Jarves showed, the official figure is 500Km combat radius, but without knowing what the mission profile and the payload is, you can't put that figure in the right relation.

IDRW report, so wait and see. Does anybody really believe that the US will allow Russian systems to be integrated on US engines? Similarly, why should Eurojet allow it, when they have their own TVC system?

Multi axis meaning 2D, 3D or undecided ?

Most likely the 3D version that they have developed for the Mig 35 / 29K, which can be fitted to the RD 33MK engine.

so your source is a cross post form a forum, great going. Praise high to the mighty radiance with 300km range. Lol



substantiate your claim, i have your post as an evidence of your lack of knowledge.

If you go through the entire thread,people posted lot of different sources to prove their claim which I can't post here.Go and check out yourself.

Ha ha ha right

Exactly what I was thinking. I don't think most of those here got your comment...

So is this for the new medium sized stealth fighter (AMCA)?

The white LABELS we See

Is this some sort of STRESS FATIGUE test instrument on the composite airframe.

LOVE THE SHOT AND LOOK OF THIS LITTLE FIGHTER

WE really need these in large nos now

 

[Dandpatta]

The LCA camouflage can take birth with this type of "stuck label" scheme. Serious ! Just make it denser and regular, and voila... Made in India camouflage

 

[#hydra#]

so we are not going to get thrust vectoring control similar to F22,rt?

Progress on LCA Mk.2 cockpit config
By SP's Special Correspondent


April 06, 2015: The look and feel of the all-glass cockpit that the LCA Tejas Mk.2 will sport is fructifying with the Aeronautical Development Agency announcing that the main display will involve two 6x8 Smart MFDs and one 5x5 smart MFD in centre console "based on the latest and best design technologies currently available in the market". The ADA is looking for a full solution to its SMFD needs for the LCA Mk.2 programme. The capability exists in country, though a competitive process will now ensue. The ADA is looking for active matrix TFT color liquid crystal display SMFDs with separate LED backlight for day and night modes with redundancy for backlighting in both the modes, touch screen capability (will be the first Indian aircraft to sport touch screen panels), anti-reflection coating, full sun readability and night vision capability, compatibility as per NVIS Class B MIL-STD-3009B, EMI protectio, the bezel shall have push buttons, rocker switches and rotary knobs, auto brightness control (ABC) of the display using illumination sensors placed on bezel, capability for windowed image overlay driven by the display processors, dual channel video to support redundant display processors, continuous health monitoring with periodic built-in-test reporting along with its normal operation, provision for operator Initiated Built-In-Test, In-situ programming capability. Conduction Cooled with no external cooling for the entire range of operating temperature.

DM says tejas to complete all issues and last test flight in 1 -2 months in an interview to times now while addressing Rafael deal. Looks like we will complete all certifications for tejas in couple of months
