The Mark 1A variant of the Tejas is powered by GE’s F404-IN20 engines but deliveries of the engines have been running years behind schedule.
GE Aerospace will set up an F404-IN20 engine repair plant in India for Tejas jets.
KEY POINTS
- The repair facility will be owned and operated by the Indian Air Force, not GE.
- GE has delivered only six out of 99 contracted F404-IN20 engines to HAL as of June 2024.
- Delays in engine deliveries have pushed Tejas Mk1A aircraft deliveries to mid-2024, two years late.
