#tejasmk2

#Safran, alongside co-developing a 120 kN engine for #AMCA, has proposed producing engines for India’s #TejasMk2. It is developing the 105 kN M88 T-REX for the #Rafale F5 with advanced coatings and improved thermal management for longer life, upgrades that could also be retrofitted into India’s Rafales. While integrating the T-REX on Tejas Mk-2 would require airframe modifications and re-certification, it promises fleet commonality, lower lifecycle costs and easier sustainment, supported by the M88 MRO facility in Hyderabad which is set to begin operations in 2026.
