Here's the source for the March F404 x 2 delivery storyNothing,
Here said HAL is to receive, will any information that HAL actually got the engine!Here's the source for the March F404 x 2 delivery story
But with Trump in charge in the US, who knows what is going on. If he thinks he can gain some leverage over India by stalling F404 delivery, he will sure as hell do that, won't he?

The Defence Secretary Mr Rajesh Kumar Singh in a recent interview with Shereen Bhan of CNBC clarified that all pending issues with GE pertaining to supplies of the F-404 TFs have been resolved , the deliveries of which will be thus -Here said HAL is to receive, will any information that HAL actually got the engine!
Unless a legal entity to receive an order exists, how can 97 be ordered this FY? I thought that the next FY started 1st April.The Defence Secretary Mr Rajesh Kumar Singh in a recent interview with Shereen Bhan of CNBC clarified that all pending issues with GE pertaining to supplies of the F-404 TFs have been resolved , the deliveries of which will be thus -
FY 2025-26 -> 12 TFs
FY 2026-27 -> upto 18 TFs
FY 2027-28 -> > 20 TFs.
The order signed between HAL & GE in the first quarter of 2021 was expected to start deliveries from 2023 onwards ( which GE didn't comply with ) with the entire order executed by Mar 2029.
As per the current timelines , GE is expected to execute the entire order for 99 nos F-404 TFs by Mar'30.
Then there's the additional order for 97 nos Mk-1a due to be signed before the end of this financial year expected to be assembled by a FAL set up by the Pvt Sector in a JV with HAL (?) which is to say if this JV issues an order for 97 + x nos of spare TFs on GE by say Mar or Apr 2026 , will execution of this order impinge on the supply of 99 nos F-404 TFs to HAL ?
I meant FY-26 i.e 1st Apr 2025 - 31st Mar 2026.Unless a legal entity to receive an order exists, how can 97 be ordered this FY? I thought that the next FY started 1st April.
