AMCA - Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft

And from these, we're now striving to design a 1,200kg, turbofan engine with 80kN of thrust. This is something bit too much to term an iterative development.

I understand the emotions but you have to play the cards you're dealt. Next step is certainly flying kaveri on lca and certifying it. Doesn't matter if it's 100kg overweight or 200kg. There's no shortcut

You got it wrong. We aren't at that stage either. XF9 is some F119 level shit=too high tech despite being smaller than F119. Japanese obviously are c*ckblocked by big biradher into not doing further obviously add on to their pacifist ideals they are slow. Otherwise the Japanese already would had flown VCE by now.

People are confusing always. 110-KN engine means(Wet), its dry would be some 75kN. Whereas XF-9 Dry alone is some 110kN and wet being some 150kN.

I know the dry thrust. 75/110 ≈ 113/164. So conceptually our GTRE110 is a f119 contemporary
