India News: India expects the first GE­F414 jet engine to be jointly produced with the US to roll out in three years to power the indigenous Tejas Mark­2 fighter

GE's F414 military aircraft engine powers state-of-the-art fighters like the Boeing Super Hornet and Saab Gripen. The anticipated pact to build them in India for the LCA Tejas Mk2 will successfully conclude India’s long-drawn pursuit of advanced combat jet engine technology

The US firm described the Memorandum of Understanding with HAL as a “key element” in strengthening defence cooperation between India and the US. | Latest News India
