The GTX-35VS Kaveri programme, initiated by DRDO's Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE) in 1986 and formally sanctioned in 1989, was intended to develop an indigenous jet engine to power India's Light Combat Aircraft (Tejas). Despite nearly four decades of development and billions of rupees spent, the engine remains unfit for combat use due to persistent technical setbacks such as thrust defi

Description
Description | The GTX-35VS Kaveri programme, initiated by DRDO's Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE) in 1986 and formally sanctioned in 1989, was intended to develop an indigenous jet engine to power India's Light Combat Aircraft (Tejas). Despite nearly four decades of development and billions of rupees spent, the engine remains unfit for combat use due to persistent technical setbacks such as thrust deficits, overheating turbine blades, and unreliable digital control systems. This failure has paralyzed India's Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) and Twin-Engine Deck-Based Fighter (TEDBF) programmes, forcing reliance on foreign engines like the American GE F414. |
