The TEDBF can be powered by either two GE-F404 engines, the French M88 engine, or an improved Kaveri engine. Therefore, I am confident it won't face delays like the Tejas MK1A, which only has one engine option, the GE-F404.
Bro, TEDBF will not be using GE-F404 it will be flying with F414 INS6
The TEDBF is a twin-engine fighter jet that can be powered by two RD-33 engines. These engines are manufactured in India under license and through technology transfer. If RD-33 engines are not used, the French M-88 engines are an alternative. Additionally, the Kaveri engine is another option. The issue of engine availability is not a concern for a twin-engine fighter jet. a single-engine fighter jet requires a very high-quality, powerful, and reliable engine, which India currently lacks.
No, RD-33s or M-88s for TEDBF or Tejas Mk.2, AMCA might go with variant of M-88
First flight of TEDBF is in 2026 with two GE F414 engines
you are contradicting your own posts
You think we can fit more VLSAMs with UVLS, or with upcoming other standard missile MRSAM or whatever it's name is.
IN doesn't require to load all of its vessels with missiles, as plans are for having 2 types of Destroyers & Frigates, smaller ones for AC groups and larger ones for long range patrolling.
