GE Aerospace delivers 3 more F404 engines to HAL for LCA Tejas Mk1A in August

GE Aerospace delivered three F404-IN20 engines to HAL in August for India's fighter jet program. These engines are crucial for the Light Combat Aircraft Tejas Mk1A production line. Supply constraints have previously caused delays in the aircraft's delivery schedule. HAL is expecting further engine deliveries from GE during the latter half of 2026. The Indian Air Force has ordered 180 of these indigenous fighter aircraft.
