Comparing an engine that is in no aircraft to an engine that will power an aircraft is a horrible comparison.
This means negotiations with the 3 western parties or at least the ones who're interested in working with us has reached a fairly advanced stage & has now reached a roadblock.
lot of technologies we developing, i think we soon have our own jet engine.This means negotiations with the 3 western parties or at least the ones who're interested in working with us has reached a fairly advanced stage & has now reached a roadblock.
Enter the Russkies who're so desperate that they'd offer 1+ 1 i.e for every TF we develop with them they'd throw in 1 for free.
The reason they've been brought in is to tell whomsoever we're negotiating with that we have options & this what those options look like.
We don't have that much forward thinking. If MoD has commonsense, they would shortlist two partners and fund both of them with 2 Consortiums in India. Kick out HAL as it's just waste of money. With GTRE as Project lead, private sector companies like Azad, PTC, Kalyani, Godrej... Make two consortiums out of them and run the program.I wonder if its possible to select 2 manufacturers just in case one of them flakes or will it result in cost overruns and unrealistic design changes...

We don't have the fucking money to do that, we're not US or china.We don't have that much forward thinking.

I bet they will select single partner who would at the end either blackmail into releasing copious amounts of funds or withhold crucial elements. Then we will take big L. But, who guarantees that even in case of two partner model, both of them wouldn't hesitate to do the same?
Are you still into we don't have money? We have money for 4B$ Predator Drones, 1B$ Apache, 7B$ Rafale but somehow don't have for engine.We don't have the fucking money to do that, we're not US or china.
We are planning 5-6 billion dollars investment for 10+ years for amca's engine.
For comparison cost of development of rest of amca mk1 and create and test 4-5 prototypes is little bit below 2 billion.
The engine development is more expensive than rest of aircraft combined.

Salient points:
1. The initial flutter and afterburner only came to light when GTRE put the engine on FTB. On their ground facility they did not able to detect anamoly.
2. Once the problem found, they took around 2-3 years to fix and then moved to FTB again.
3. Due to lack of test facilities we are wasting lot of time.
4. Eg. Compressor testing facility is in Germany. FTB in Russia.
5. For FTB we need to book slot and it should be in very well advance. Otherwise year delay is normal.
6. GTRE did not have full fledged Afterburner testing facility. Current one is an 25% scale version.
7. Lack of machinery also a challenge.
8. Raw material processing is slightly improved.
In short. MOD Babus were kanjoos and RM is retard in this things. Thus merry go round going on with Files.
Alright, tell me the date and timeWE NEED A STRONG NATIONWIDE PROTEST BY THE CONCERNED EDUCATED YOUTH TO ESTABLISH CRITICAL TECHNOLOGY BASES IN THE COUNTRY LIKE, COMPLETE TEST FACILITY FOR AERO-ENGINES, HIGH LEVEL METALLURGY, HIGH END AVIONICS, MORE INVOLVEMENT OF PRIVATE ENTITIES IN DEFENCE MANUFACTURING, RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT.

And technology developed for amca, will be used to upgrade other jets.Not good comparison. While Amca development cost is for single jet program , money spent on 110kn engine will be utilised in multiple programs later on AMCA mk1,2,3 and lca mk2 mlu, tedbf mlu , and new gen stealth drones.
LoL , you're paying us too much respect dudeFew retards like us have useless interest in such topics
You tell me broLoL , you're paying us too much respect dude
OK. So India is always trying to find a way => expect 10 more years to have it's onwn engine....
