Ab yeh Bencho Azad Engineering Kaun Hai?....

Just 5 crore? For 20 engines, spares & 30 rebuilds? That is cheaper than a Hyundai Creta!

Maybe for small turbofans?

Even if its STFE, that is still too cheap. Remember that STFE is also complex and took nearly a decade to develop. So, selling at a price of 10-20lakhs is too low

It could be for ptae 7 class engine or a per unit cost for bigger engine.

Yeah hal is working to improve that engine. As it is not just supposed to be used once.

Another startup set up by govt under some dummy owner like an army colonel etc and all technology, tooling provided by DRDO. It is just an indirect privatisation to avoid govt redtapes, reservations etc

Doesn't look like it's being led by someone from the military.

It makes sense now. Alphauddin likely was confused and did a misreporting

Again giving opinions based on clown level of understanding. Azad Engineering is making aero engine as well as auto components for foreign vendors and for DRDO for ages.

Atleast read the whole thing, clearly it's an engine

STFE...

25 Lakh is good enough. Anyhow they are not making the whole engine subcomponents.

One more aspect which we tend to overlook. DRDO is not giving them 5 Cr for the project, its them who is offering to complete the project in 5 Cr.
