Fighter jet engine deal with India to start this year: GE Aerospace's Amy Gowder

In an exclusive interview, the top executive said the scope of the technology transfer to HAL will be higher than what GE has done with other partners and that options to export engines and components from India are firmly on the table. She added that GE is keen to participate in the development of next generation engines for India's Advanced Multirole Combat Aircraft (AMCA) and has a technological advantage over competitors.

Gowder said GE has experience in technology transfer but has never done it to such an extent. "We have done this before with Korea and Turkey but never to this degree. So, it is a very special technology transfer for India. They (HAL) will have the most content than any other partner around the world," she said.

How exactly is this different from what SK and Turkey got? Will we get technologies that will help with the Kaveri engine? What percentage of the F414 engine will be locally sourced?

How exactly is this different from what SK and Turkey got? Will we get technologies that will help with the Kaveri engine? What percentage of the F414 engine will be locally sourced?

The difference is we will get best deals anounced every year in news briefings and clippings only while USGOV holds deal over some random issue over period of time.

 

[NoobWannaLearn]

Is that per unit gun or per batch? If batch, how many guns per batch?

Don't know about that but will deliver 5 rn for internal trials and 15 to forces for further trials.

The answer to all those questions is nobody knows. Right now all we have is speculations from Idrw, Alpha Defense etc. Even the 80% TOT news not credible. Until the final agreement is hammered out which may take till the end of year, we're pretty much in the dark.
