The wait is over! The IAF will receive 20 new Tejas Mk1As, and HAL-GE has reached an agreement! The US will provide new #GEF404 jet engines. 🚀⚔️ भारतीय वायुसेना के आधुनिक लड़ाकू विमान LCA Tejas Mk1A के लिए एक बड़ी राहत की खबर आई है ।अमेरिकी कंपनी भारतीय वायुसेना के आधुनिक लड़ाकू विमान LCA Tejas Mk1A के लिए एक बड़ी राहत की खबर आई है. अमेरिकी कंपनी #GeneralElectricAerospace ने भरोसा दिया है कि वह वित्त वर्ष 2026-27 में भारत को 20 नए F404-IN20 इंजन डिलीवर करेगी। इंजनों की इस सप्लाई से Hindustan Aeronautics Limited #HAL को तेजस विमानों का उत्पादन तेज करने में बड़ी मदद मिलेगी ,जिससे IAF को 20 और नए तेजस लड़ाकू विमान मिलने का रास्ता साफ हो जाएगा । रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक, असली रफ्तार अप्रैल 2026 से शुरू होने वाले नए वित्त वर्ष में दिखेगी, जब 20 इंजनों की खेप भारत पहुंचेगी. भारत ने कुल 83 तेजस Mk1A का ऑर्डर दिया है और 97 और विमानों को मंजूरी मिल चुकी है। पिछले एक-दो साल से तेजस का प्रोडक्शन थोड़ा धीमा था, जिसका मुख्य कारण GE की तरफ से इंजनों का न आना था, GE ने इस इंजन की अपनी पुरानी प्रोडक्शन लाइन को फिर से शुरू किया था, जिसमें समय लगा, साथ ही दुनिया भर में कलपुर्जों की कमी ने भी काम रोका ।

India and the US are expected to sign a $1 billion deal by October for 113 #GEF404 engines to power the #Tejas Mk1A fleet. This follow-up order raises the total number of engines to 212. It supports the delivery of 180 jets by 2033 and strengthens India’s Atmanirbhar initiative.

#WATCH | Delhi | On getting engines from US's GE, HAL Chairman & Managing Director Dr DK Sunil says, "... The ramping up is taking place. They (GE) had promised us 12 engines in a year, but perhaps now we will get 12 engines by the end of the financial year. This year, we may get 10. We will get the remaining by March. We have already built the 10th aircraft, and the 11th aircraft is ready... They are now sorting out their supply chain. The basic problems are done, and now the production will ramp up... Next year, they have promised us 20 engines. We have had a meeting with their top management and they are also sharing a lot of information on a regular basis about where the engine is, what the issues are. The communication has improved and we are confident that they will be able to now ramp up and meet our requirement..."

GE has silently shifted the engine delivery goalpost again but no one to say maza nahi aa raha or no media to write long articles about how bad GE is Now 2 engines per month from October, this makes it 6th or 7th goalpost change 🙂 Sad state #gef404 #tejasmk1a

🇮🇳 अक्टूबर से भारत को हर महीने अमेरिका से दो GE F-404 इंजन मिलेंगे। ये इंजन तेजस फाइटर जेट्स में लगाए जाएंगे, सरकार ने यह भी साफ कर दिया है कि F-35 लड़ाकू विमान खरीदने में भारत की कोई रूचि नहीं है... https://t.co/VL29ijXZSH #TejasMk1A #IndianAirForce #GEF404 #DefenceNews #AtmanirbharBharat #MakeInIndia #IndiaUSDefence #F404Engines #F414Engines #AMCA #IndianAirForce #OperationSindoor #MRFA #RafaleFighters #P8IAircraft #GeneralElectric #DefenceTalks #IndianNavy #NationalSecurity

🚨#BIG | Second #GEF404 #Engine Delivered – #LCA #Tejas Mk1A Production Back on Track! 🇮🇳 The much-anticipated second GE F404 engine has now been delivered to #HAL, marking a critical milestone in the Tejas Mk1A fighter jet program. After months of delays due to the temporary halt in GE’s F404 production line, this delivery re-energizes the ₹48,000 crore deal signed in 2021 for 83 LCA Mk1A jets (including 10 trainers). With this, #HAL can now regain momentum and aim to meet the #IndianAirForce’s timelines, with the first batch of aircraft expected by 2024. #Tejas #HAL #MakeInIndia #GEF404 #LCA #IAF #AatmanirbharBharat

Past mid-April 2025, still no word on #GE delivering the 2nd #F404 engine for #Tejas Mk1A. After the 1st engine buzz in March, seems everyone's forgotten. #Tejas #GEF404

First #GEF404 engine set to power #LCAMk1A on final tests By Anantha Krishnan M /#TMH https://t.co/RTwcbGGA7j #Kuttemperoor (Kerala), March 20, 2025: The good news is here. The wait is over, and the engines are coming to power new variants of the Light Combat Aircraft (#LCAMk1A). The #GEF404 is all set to touchdown in India, putting an end to the stalemate, the debate, and the concerns. Here are some key verified facts that will answer all your doubts on the 'missing power plant' of LCA. 1. The first engine to power the #LCAMk1A aka #LCAAlpha is currently undergoing the final round of checks on the test bed at the GE Aerospace facility in Lynn. 2. These are extensive & critical tests, considering the engine line has been idle for a long time. 3. The first engine is expected to arrive in India via freight in April. 4. Those familiar with the current production schedules at Nashik say that the workforce is doing a good job, considering their expertise in handling MiG variants and #Su30MkIs. 5. "The speed at which the first aircraft is coming out is a testament to their decades of experience," an official told Tarmak Media House (TMH). 6. Into its 61st year of existence, the Nashik Division, popularly known as the MiG Complex, will soon add another chapter to its long history of rolling out fighters for the #IAF. 7. The official mentioned that 3-4 Alphas are already in different stages of production at the Nashik plant. 8. Meanwhile, in #Bengaluru, there are already 3 Alphas undertaking flight trials powered by GE Cat-B engines. 9. These 3 Alphas had flown during the 2025 #PlaneCarnival inaugural ceremony. 10. The roll out of the #LCAMk1A from Nashik be a new chapter to India's military aviation history.
