ब्रेकिंग- AMCA के लिए 5th Gen Russian Engine - Russia Offers Next Gen Engine to IAF
Russia has reportedly expressed interest in supplying an advanced turbofan engine for India's ambitious 5.5gen Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) program. This offer includes a Transfer of Technology (ToT), aligning with India's goal of boosting indigenous defence capabilities. The engine in question is the successor to the Klimov RD-33, which will incorporate fifth-generation technology from Russia's AL-41F1S engine.
The next-generation engine, being developed by Russia's ODK Klimov, promises key advancements tailored to meet the India's AMCA requirements.
The engine will deliver a maximum thrust of 110 kN, aligning perfectly with the specifications outlined by DRDO's Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE) for the AMCA. It will feature a gas generator derived from the AL-41F1S, used in Russia's Su-35, and incorporate some elements from the AL-51 engine. Essentially, it is a compact version of the Izdeliye 177S engine.
The new engine is expected to include advanced features like increased reliability, higher thrust-to-weight ratio, and reduced maintenance requirements, meeting the demands of stealthy and versatile fifth-generation fighters like the AMCA.
