💨 Abstract

GE has begun delivering F404-IN20 engines for Tejas MK1A fighter jets, increasing pressure on Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) to expedite production. The delay in engine deliveries, as seen in 2016, underscores India's persistent defense procurement issues and policy inaction. India's defense sector requires timely action to ensure the Indian Air Force receives critical fighters.
