DRDO, Safran close in on agreement to develop engine for indigenous stealth fighter

DRDO and Safran to develop engine for indigenous stealth fighter
If we are really signing the deal in a couple of months, it should mean that Rafale deal to is on the table...
Even if it is signed my conviction is that nothing much might come out of it. Most of the ppl here of opinion that an order for rafael will help us developing the engine. But frankly why would any one help you out when they can milk you as much as possible in one way or another. With these kind of deals we are just fooling ourselves we will neither get the complete technology nor help build our technical capacity.Negotiations with Safran is happening more than a decade and half.
Until it's signed, nothing it is.

If we are able to get more work share & autonomy than we had with Shakti engine,it will be good.I hope we get more.. Not re doing AL31F.

The anti nationals wants to sabotage the proposed RR/saffron collaboration with india on jet engine development, Suddenly they came up with this bed time story of kaveri reincarnation from ashes.
The original program was supposed to be completed. I believe that maybe some funds were left, so they are trying to improve and test whatever they can .
