India’s Big Defence Breakthrough? Safran–DRDO Jet Engine Deal for AMCA Explained

India is on the verge of a defence milestone. After the troubled Kaveri engine project delayed the Tejas fighter, New Delhi is now set to approve a Safran–DRDO partnership to co-develop a powerful 120–140 kN jet engine for the AMCA. With full technology transfer, including single-crystal blade know-how, this deal could finally give the Indian Air Force propulsion autonomy. In this video, we trace the rise and fall of the Kaveri engine, how 1998 sanctions crippled it, and why the new Safran–DRDO collaboration is different — and potentially transformative for India’s “Atmanirbhar” defence vision. #indofrance #amca #fundkaveriengine #LCATejas #IndianAirForce Welcome to Indiatimes Youtube channel.
