Rolls-Royce offers 120 kN AMCA Engine Joint Venture as well as partnership with GTRE to replace GE F404/F414 engines in Tejas Mk1A & Tejas Mk2

The years-long search of an Indian-made high-performance fighter engine has gained new momentum with a new offer from Rolls-Royce. Rolls-Royce is now proposing a more comprehensive and ambitious model of collaboration that would set up the Indian domestic aero-engine ecosystem as opposed to any single platform.

The core of the offer is a joint venture to develop a 120-kilonewton-class engine to be used in the AMCA. But the more compelling offer is to replace GE F404 and F414 engines from Tejas Mk1A and Tejas Mk2 in future.

Dependence on foreign engine supply can be greatly diminished with the help of an indigenous alternative, which has been worked out in a partnership with GTRE-Rolls-Royce.

This engine would be custom-built according to the operating requirements of the Indian fighter jets, the production capacities, and the long-term sustainment requirements.
