What happened
Hindustan Aeronautics Limited is working to fulfill its contract to supply 180 Tejas Mk-1A fighter jets to the Indian Air Force. Deliveries of the Mk-1A aircraft have been delayed, primarily because of supply issues with F404-IN20 engines from GE Aerospace. Although Hindustan Aeronautics Limited has completed 22 Mk-1A aircraft, they cannot be delivered without the necessary engines.
Why it matters
The Tejas Mk-1A is a key platform for the Indian Air Force to replenish its fighter fleet. The successful supply of engines from GE Aerospace is critical for Hindustan Aeronautics Limited to accelerate production and meet the procurement needs of the Indian Air Force.
Who's involved
- Hindustan Aeronautics LimitedManufacturer of the Tejas LCA Mk-1A fighter aircraft for the Indian Air Force.
- GE AerospaceSupplier of the F404-IN20 jet engines required for the Tejas Mk-1A program.
- Indian Air ForceThe aerial service branch that ordered 180 Tejas Mk-1A fighter jets.
