LCA-Tejas PV1 to be test bed for Kaveri engine which will fly in next Aero India says DRDO Chief

[thesolar65]

DRDO Chief Dr S Christopher has confirmed Tejas-PV1 combat aircraft, currently used to test advanced electronic warfare suite (EW suite) by Defence Avionics Research Establishment (DARE) will also be test bed aircraft to be used to integrate indigenously developed Kaveri engine . According to Air Marshal Philip Rajkumar (retd) in his Book ” The Tejas Story ” had mentioned that Tejas-PV1 was specifically designed to accommodate Kaveri engine in its engine bay but it later flew with American engines but it still has been maintained by DRDO due to this attributes of the jet, so it is not surprising so see oldest Flying LCA-Tejas aircraft been selected to become test bed for Kaveri engine . Dr S Christopher has said rear fuselage of PV-1 which was modified to accommodate American supplied GE engines earlier will see changes now back to accommodate Kaveri engine which has be revived by joint Indo-French Aeroengine specialist as part of Dassault Rafale offset deal. idrw.org in our previous report (Safran looking out for Program Manager for Kaveri Engine) had mentioned some first signs of movement in the Kaveri engine program after Safran advertised for a Project manager to handle Kaveri engine program which could see be ready by end of 2018 or early 2019 for Tejas-PV1 integration.

At last Kaveri will fly!! It only flew with Grumov on IL-76. But not on Tejas.

Delay does not matter, an Indian engine tech is the best thing can happen even if it is at 2020. Only US, UK, FRance and Russia mastered this tech.

We will see when it happens.

Quality jet engine tech with no strings attached can be possible only with French ...right decision and its pretty much possible ... our technicians are working on jet engines for longs so they can easily improve the Kaveri once the initial issues will be sorted out.

We will see when it happens.

Why so pessimistic lets be optimistic there will be delays and hurdles after all Indian engineers are not as good as Pakistani or Chinese Engineers.

But eventually we will learn and pass.

now log off you pleb!

Sir, wouldn't it better if you keep your middle finger away from an Indian jet engine. Who knows someday it may become successful like brahmos and chop your thing off.

Certain "people" perpetually look for conflict to sate certain "complexes", lest they not be able to sleep at night.

Unfortunately for these people, they need to understand that we eventually get our shit together, it takes time, it take a boat load of scorn from these very people, but we do get there eventually and always.

Don't forget that when the Kaveri enters operational service it will be the only second operational flat rated jet engine (the other being the P&W F135 onboard the F-35). The Kaveri is a very advanced design, no wonder it has taken a bit more time to get up to scratch.

I am grateful for your comment. Google, Facebook, Microsoft, IBM, Bosch, Alstom, Siemens, ABB, Airbus, Bombardier, Apple, Boeing, Bell lab, NASA, all are full of idiots that they chose India instead of Pakistan. Engineers coming out of Lahore is far better than engineers coming out of Chennai or Bangalore. lol

Sorry dude...looks like I twitched your nerve!!

Plz dont mind @django

as per this gentleman LUMS, NUSt and QEA are better Universities than over hyped IITs.

how ever its a different story that LUMS NUST or any other Pakistani University is yet to produce a worth mentioning personality.

for further entertainment . .go through the below mentioned thread

IITs , iits , lol, which world famous scientist have these crappy institutions produced...exactly......lol, you folks are talking as if these are historical centres of learning on par with the worlds leading institutions lol,,,,now log off.

Next or millennium after that . . but one thing is for sure. . it ll come way before u lot can come up with an indigenous 2 stroke scooter engine

We are still waiting for those path breaking researches happening in LUMS you were mentioning in the other thread. LOL

HAHAHAAAAA you folks were adamant we would never have nuclear capability, we achieved , did you know that NUST is intricately involved in our nuclear program, that is why it is well known we have neutron bombs, thermonuclear weapons designs etc also our missile program is in intricate collaboration with these intuitions, that is why we have achieved triad and MIRV capability, thanks to the gems at NUST, just for the record the H!ndians tried and failed to achieve MIRV capability hahahaaaa, we churn out practical stuff unlike your crappy IITs which produce nothing but third rate code, now log off Gangadeshi before I embarrass you any further.
@The Sandman @Zibago these folks are truly delusional
