1. A very interesting event - #GTRE has invited EOI from "reputed Indian Industries/Orgs" for component mfg, module-level assy, engine level integration and delivery to GTRE of 50kN class aero-engine - presumably the dry #Kaveri version for #Ghatak #UCAV.
2. Dry #Kaveri basically means #Kavari minus the A/B module. It's known to produce 52kN dry thrust based on various reports. It consists of 9-10 modules or sub-assemblies, ~2000 components and ~20000 parts count.
3. The main modules are:
- Fan (or LPC)
- HPC
- Intermediate compressor casing
- Bypass casing
- Combustor module
- HPT
- LPT
- Exhaust cone
- Jet pipe
- Auxillary gear box
It would be interesting to see whether it will have a
