Each production line will have capacity to rollout 8 jets/year
2 x production lines in HAL , Bengaluru
1 x Production line in HAL , Nashik
3 production lines are currently presentso 3 x 8 = 24 jets per year is possible
FYI , 4th tejas production line is being planned/under discussion.....so 32 jets/year too is possible if GE delivers 32 F404 per year......

HAL has ability to produce 30 jet engines per year.....so Tejas MK2 might have production rate of 32 jets per year.......Yes producing AL31 & F414 will be different but the same work force would be made to adapt and new jet engine components manufacturing machines will be inducted.....
Ability to produce 30 jet engine per year and 4 x Assemble lines with production rate of 32 jets per year I want you to connect the dots....IMO Tejas mk2 production would start by 2032 with low initial production and gradually increasing production rate to 32 jets/year.....so by 2038 all 180 Tejas MK 2 would be delivered.....
So inshort you have infrastructure to produce 32 jet per year and skilled work force to Assemble 30 jets a year......when trying to add Additional production line all Jigs , skilled work force would be planned in advance
Only issue here is AMCA production thats why MOD wasted 3 years for SPV & Private production line![]()
