Thx.
U could not think like that, for several reasons.
Sweedish, french, US, or british are not more intelligent than indians. When U talk about jet engines, it is the state of the art of what country could produce.
This topic implies a heavy industrial basis that include, heavy metallurgy infrastructure, raw materials in order to transform them, heavy tools machinery complex, and it is not all, U need of course money, and highly skills personnel to do that. In fact U need huge, and heavy industrial basis in order to do that. This basis India could not afford before.
During the 60's, 70's, 80's the half of population in India starves, those who had the chances, fled to immigrate in West. Moreover is the Jet Engines turbofan a strategic urgency ? My answer is no. At that time Indian's strategics's urgency was nuclear weapons and missiles in order to deter China. India invested in this area and obtained nuclear weapons with its vectors. The deterrence was obtained. After all China's jet engines project the WS-10, WS-13, and WS-15 started in 2000, and in early 90's, if not 80's. It is worth to add that at the end of 1990's, Russia's military budget was 6 billions $, China's ones barely equal to 20 billions $, India between them, around 10 billions $, meanwhile US one was at least 300 billions $.
What could you do with 10 billions $ ? Barely to defend yourself. In that time India, and China were simply third world countries without money.
Nowadays things are completely different because China, and India are complexe industrial countries that are quickly narrowing the gap with the West. If you see China's jet engines, the real progress started only after 2012, because China is doing what it could to narrow the gap, and they are succeeding. Moreover for example a CNC 5 axis before the 2010's was available only in western countries. US decided who has the right to use it or not. Who has the right to produce it or not. Furthermore the price of a CNC tool machine in the 80's is not as it is now. Nowadays any country could access of any CNC, enough to dispute with US. For that reason after 2010, India will become undoubtedly one of the top country in the world.
Back to Iran.
Nowadays Iran is able, or at least is on the verge to produce complex CNC tool machines, even 5 axis. Because nowadays Iran has all assets that could allow a such challenge. Once the industrial basis is available, it is just a matter of time to narrow the gap with the West in aircraft area. Iran next will produce complexe jet engines, and surely in the coming years will be able to reproduce plane like F-14, F-4 Phantom II, and even the Mig-29.
Another important setting must be taken in account, the print 3D, iranians seem to be very advanced, and very skilled. Print 3D could shorten the road for Iranians to access any technology that they want.
Thx to all for your precious informations U share.
