LCA Indien
Le LCA Tejas indien était, est un programme national ambitieux. Commandes de vol électriques, HUD, HOTAS,
Le problème principal tient dans le turboréacteur Kaveri.
L'Inde lance un appel d'offre pour la fourniture de turboréacteurs remplaçant les GE F 404 des prototypes.
Sur Aviationweek :
NEW DELHI — The long-awaited request for proposals (RFP) to provide 99-125 engines for the Indian Air Force’s Tejas Light Combat Aircraft is expected to be released this week.
Proposals for the two candidate engines — GE’s F414 and Eurojet’s EJ200 — will be due by Oct. 12 if the RFP is released on July 17.
In October 2007, Eurojet signed a nondisclosure agreement with the Bangalore-based Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA), which is developing the LCA and evaluating alternatives to the GE F404 engine powering the Tejas prototypes and initial production aircraft.
A senior official of Eurojet says it will transfer data under the agreement to India’s Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE), which is responsible for developing the indigenous Kaveri engine planned for the LCA.
“We have interest in doing more with GTRE. However, we shall wait for milestones to be reached,” an official says. “Once you have a ticket to ride….synergies [with other projects] are quite natural, though the customer might think different.”

With severe delays to the Kaveri program and performance limitations with the initial LCA, the Indian air force is keen to push ahead with an off-the-shelf engine acquisition. Former air force chief Fali Homi Major said early this year: “We need five squadrons of the Mk2 LCAs. When integrated with the new engines, the LCA Mk2 should fly in 2013.”
The GE414 powers the Boeing F/A-18E/F and Saab Gripen NG, while the EJ200 powers the Eurofighter Typhoon. All
three aircraft are contenders in India’s 126-aircraft multirole fighter competition now under way.
“Our engine needs minimum changes and will not delay the LCA,” the Eurojet official said.

Premier vol du TEJAS biplace. Sur Flight :
The first two-seat trainer prototype of the Indian Aeronautical Development Agency's Tejas light combat aircraft has made its debut flight from [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]' Bangalore airport facilities.
Performed on 26 November, the 30min first flight represents a major step towards the availability of an indigenous advanced supersonic trainer to accompany the Indian air force's future fleet of Tejas lightweight fighters.
"All the objectives set for the flight were achieved and all the systems on board the trainer prototype performed well all through the sortie," says the state-owned Defence Research and Development Organisation, which oversees the activities of the [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien].
Piloted by Gp Capt Ritu Raj Tyagi from the National Flight Test Centre, the aircraft reached an altitude of 29,500ft (9,000m) and a maximum speed of M0.85 during its debut sortie.
The Tejas is scheduled to achieve its initial operational capability milestone with the Indian air force in late 2010.
The nation's navy also intends to acquire a carrier-capable version of the type, with this to feature a high level of commonality with the new trainer model.
The ADA says development, prototype and pre-series production examples of the Tejas had flown a combined total of almost 1,230 test flights by 26 November.
