India has tried building gas turbine engines before. And weโve come close.
At LAT, we want to get past the finish line. So weโre putting together a propulsion research team in Bangalore, focused solely on building gas turbine engines from scratch. Lightweight. Efficient. Flight-ready. Made in India.
Whatโs different this time?
Weโre giving engineers the freedom to think, build, break, and repeat. Our dedicated research centre โ with labs for combustion, turbomachinery, thermal systems, and materials, will give engineers the space and freedom to iterate fast, and get to real outcomes at a speed which is unprecedented in the industry.
Also, this team will be led by engineers. No waiting around for approvals from "business" people. No chasing slides or meetings. Just hands-on problem solving, running bench tests, working with suppliers, building hardware from scratch โ and pushing the limits of design and physics every day.
It wonโt be easy. But if it works, it changes everything. A full engine stack, built locally. Powering STOL aircraft. UAVs. Remote connectivity. Self-reliance.
If youโve ever built turbines, rotors, control systems โ or anything close โ and want to be part of something that could one day, rewrite history, write to us at [email protected]
