DRDO to Tie-up with SNECMA, France, for Kaveri Engine

The Govt. has given go-ahead permission to the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) to take up an offer of SNECMA to ‘partner’ with the Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE) for jointly developing the Kaveri aero engine.

The Rs. 2,839-crore Kaveri engine programme was launched in 1989, specifically to power the Light Combat Aircraft, Tejas, now under development at the DRDO’s Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA). In 2005, the GTRE indicated that it would not be able to develop the Kaveri engine on its own.

There was a hitch in the technology transfer earlier. Now SNECMA has indicated that the technology can be given as fast as the Indians can assimilate it.

The GTRE hopes to use the SNECMA – GTRE Kaveri to replace the GE F404 (IN20) engine that will fly two squadrons of the Tejas.
