If hot/high performance is crucial and C-390 does not meet the requirement, no C-390 then? How many types does India operate at the moment that meet requirements for providing airlift capacity in the mountains?C-390 won't work for Indian needs because India needs to have airlift capabilities in the mountains. That's where the most pressing needs are. India has already vast wide connected railroads and roads. It's just in the mountains that IA has a hard time getting there by road.
Why did it crash ?Crashed Dhruv recovery with the help of IA

they have a massive factory in talegaon"Aerospace Is Flagbearer Of India's Manufacturing Push": GE South Asia Chief
A GE Aerospace manufacturing facility in Pune will soon begin making the F414 jet engine - which powers some of the most advanced fighter planes in the world, including the Boeing F/A 18E/F Super Hornet, GE Aerospace South Asia CEO said.www.ndtv.com
Apparently GE has a facility in Pune where the F414 engine will be screwdrivered.
AFAIK, they mostly manufactured products related to Wind turbines."Aerospace Is Flagbearer Of India's Manufacturing Push": GE South Asia Chief

Tejas with 2x JDAM-ER training rounds or as colloquially called; Winged JDAM

Also as a bonus we have the weirdest take from...obviously our very own AlphaDefence

Powered-JDAM uses a more robust airframe like structure that wraps around the bomb body to better handle all the forces as opposed to regular JDAM-ER where the wing kit is attached using hardware store like hose connector. Moreover given the fact that it has a turbojet engine and fuel tank, the overall length of Powered-JDAM becomes almost double of the Mark-80 series bomb it's attached to.

And also 80km is pretty much the range of a regular JDAM-ER; for powered JDAM it's almost 500km.

Plain vanilla winged JDAM, not powered.
