Eurojet pays dearly for engine re-bid delay

I think its best for us to chuck this TOT on engine and get the planes fly now.
The only huddle will be the TOT and clearance for TOT.

Why not just put the engine?, If EJ200 were there then the letest techs would have come to us, noe EJ not being there, and GE being an old engine, I think we should drop the TOT stuff and move ahead with the LCA 2.

But especially on the engine side we need any ToT that is useful to impove our own capabilities in regard of Kaveri engine, or any furture engine development. What's the use of getting LCA flying with GE engines, but ToT will be provided only to licence build non critical parts? I agree with you that we need to get LCA done as soon as possible, but we also have to get the most out of these deals and imo Eurojet could have offered more.

That was out of frustration:)

When we choose Ge engine, I think someone was convinced that TOT will be offered, else we wouldnt have gone for this decision. and now if there is a question whether TOT will be offered or not, I think it wont make sense now coz we have already picked up the engine.

Look, I mean-), EJ was much favorable for TOT but that wasnt selected, GE and US we know we will have issues with them but we selected.

Priority would have been given to TOT and not the bid:)..now because of this LCA will fly late, so I was saying let LCA move, get the engines. MK2 cant be delayed coz that will only mean delay in AMCA as well and the ripple efefct on other projects.
