Big- Kaveri Engine का अंतिम Test - Kaveri Engine is Ready for Tejas MK1a ?
The Indian Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO)'s Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE) has announced that the Kaveri derivative engine is gearing up for another significant phase of testing. This round involves 70 hours of crucial flight trials on a Russian Ilyushin II-76 testbed, a process expected to span nearly a month.
The technology demonstrator & engines have already logged over 140 hours of testing. This includes 70 hours of ground testing at GTRE's facility in Bangalore and an additional 75 hours of altitude testing at the Central Institute of Aviation Motors (CIAM) in Russia.
The upcoming trials will leverage newly manufactured engines from Godrej Aerospace, focusing on performance at altitudes exceeding 40,000 feet. This phase aims to further validate the engine's capabilities under extreme flight conditions.
