India Advances Indigenous Fighter Jet Engine and AMCA Stealth Aircraft Projects
India's indigenous fighter jet efforts include the Kaveri 2.0 engine and the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) programme. The Kaveri engine, initially developed in the 1980s for the Tejas fighter, faced challenges and was replaced by foreign engines but is now being redesigned for future combat aircraft. Meanwhile, the AMCA aims to be India's first fifth-generation stealth fighter, enhancing air power with advanced technology and reducing reliance on imports. Both projects reflect India's long-term aerospace ambitions and evolving defence capabilities.
