  • The indigenously designed and developed Kaveri Engine was successfully flight tested on an IL76 by DRDO yesterday during the Flying Test Bed (FTB) Trials at Gromov Flight Research Institute (GFRI), Moscow, Russia.

    K9 version of Kaveri engine was tested from take-off to landing and flew for a period of over one hour up to at an altitude of 6000m at a speed of 0.6 mach on its maiden flight. The engine control, engine performance and engine health during the flight were found to be excellent

  • Tejas Mk1 Initial operational clearance by early 2011

    Indian air force has ordered 40 Tejas Mark 1 and Indian Navy some more Tejas mark 1.

    We are also looking at 100 Tejas Mark 2 for Indian air force and at least 50 Tejas Mark 2 for Indian Navy

    In total, we are looking at least 200 to 250 Tejas for both Indian air force and Navy for both mark1 and mark 2 versions.

    Next step is AMCA (Advanced medium combat stealth aircraft). I hope kaveri gets ready for this twin engined beast.

  • I am not sure about the duration of this documentary. May be it is a short documentary. LCA has already completed 898 test flights as of june 2008 !!

  • @kashsoldier one rule in all combat aircraft development is you can NEVER have enough flight tests. pilots were still finding new things out about the F-4G, wild w, before the gulf war. 

  • @kashsoldier whoaaaaa

  • This is the story of 1 porki & 1 ching. Once porki was very scared and kneeled down to ching, and the ching pissed on him and later asked porki what do you want?

    Porki: I need a a/c

    Ching: Do u want noodles and fortune cookie with it

    Porki: S

    Ching: it is for take-out right?

    Porki: S

    Ching: okay here, the bag is 25 cents so pay me 500 million

    pokie goes back and to his horror finds that he cannot land, then he remembers n goes "thank god IAF is there"

  • The Mark 2 will have a more powerful engine, refined aerodynamics.

  • PLEASE!! Post the rest of the episode too. Or atleast give a link to it.
