France is reportedly offering to manufacture the Rafale’s powerful M88 engine in India as part of the Indian Air Force’s 114-aircraft MRFA program. If approved, this could become one of India’s biggest aerospace technology transfer deals, strengthening Make in India and boosting indigenous fighter aircraft manufacturing capabilities. The M88 is the heart of the Rafale fighter jet, and advanced fighter engine technology is among the most closely guarded technologies in the world. If this proposal moves forward, India could gain valuable expertise in high-performance military engine manufacturing and develop a stronger domestic aerospace ecosystem. #RafaleJet #Rafale #safran #KaveriEngine #engine

The F-2 is a fighter aircraft jointly modified and developed by Japan and the United States, integrating the advanced technologies of both nations. Based on the U.S. F-16, it has been tailored to align with Japan's operational concepts and geographical characteristics. Development began in 1988 as the FS-X, with its first flight in 1995, and the program was completed in 2000. Major modifications from the F-16 include an increased wing area to enhance maneuverability, the use of advanced materials and structures for weight reduction, and an upgraded engine for improved takeoff performance. Additionally, it features cutting-edge radar and advanced electronic systems.

With developing countries facing $11.7 trillion in external debt and a $4 trillion SDG financing gap, the urgency is clear. The world does not need us to repeat promises, it needs action. At the 2026 ECOSOC Forum on Financing for Development Follow-up, I stressed that we need to deliver on the promises already made, in particular the 280 actions proposed by the Sevilla Commitment need to be translated into concrete outcomes.

🔴 Potential Future of the Indian Air Force 🔴 After the recent clearance of an additional order for 97 Tejas Mk-1As, many argue that the IAF 🇮🇳 should have prioritized the Mk-2 instead. That opinion is valid, but here’s why the IAF choosing additional Mk-1As at this stage makes more sense. 1. SQUADRON STRENGTH. The IAF is facing a negative squadron fill rate, numbers are dropping faster than replacements are arriving, Mk-1A is already production-ready. The engine supply issue with GE is nearly resolved, which allows HAL to deliver fighters at a steady pace. By ordering 97 more Mk-1As, the IAF can quickly add fighters and prevent squadron strength from declining further. While Waiting for the Mk-2 would mean potential delays timeline slippage while squadron numbers continue to shrink. 2. THE MEDIUM WEIGHT GAP The Mk-2 is designed to fill the medium-weight fighter role, but realistically, its development and production could take longer than official timelines suggest. In the meantime, it seems likely that the IAF will order additional Rafale squadrons to cover this category. Once the Mk-2 is ready for production, it will replace Rafale as the indigenous medium-weight backbone in 4.5 Gen class fighters. 3. THE 5TH GEN CAPABILITY GAP. India also faces a gap in 5th-generation fighters, as the AMCA is still at least a decade away, to address this, India might acquire a limited number of Su-57 from Russia. This would give the IAF early experience with 5th-gen operations and sustainment before AMCA arrives which is still a decade away atleast. At present, the only realistic option seems to be the Su-57. If India proceeds with it under ToT arrangement, it could also contribute to future Su-30MKI upgrades. ⚠️ However, this depends heavily on the extent of ToT actually provided — nothing is confirmed yet. 4. IAF'S PHASED APPROACH LOOKS LIKE: • Mk-1A → add numbers fast, stabilize squadrons. • Rafale → cover the medium-weight role until Mk-2 is ready. • Su-57 Limited import → seed next-gen capability before AMCA. 5. Bottom line Those who argue that the IAF should have gone straight for the Mk-2 are not wrong. But given the urgent squadron shortages, the IAF chose the safe and practical option with the Mk-1A. It may not be the perfect long-term solution, but it ensures the Air Force does not run dangerously low on numbers while waiting for larger indigenous programs to mature.

Watch this walkthrough a market in Teheran. Iran is developing and has a trajectory towards more freedoms, it’s obviously not perfect … but it’s not the “radical Muslim county” the western warmongers it portray to be. Which essentially is the problem for them, a moderate developing country becomes a problem for the unipolar globalists … if it is sovereign, what Iran strives to be. 6/

At the inauguration of the Safran Aircraft Engine Services India (SAESI) facility in Hyderabad, Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji emphasised that this state-of-the-art centre marks a major milestone in India’s aviation journey. He highlighted that the facility will help turn India into a global MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul) hub, create new employment opportunities for the youth, and further strengthen India’s position as the world’s third-largest domestic aviation market. “The Bharat of today is dreaming big, doing bigger, and delivering best. We are focussed on ease of doing business to attract global investment and industries. We have opened up defence and space sectors to private players and we have signalled to the world that India welcomes investment and innovation.” — Hon’ble Prime Minister MoCA_GoI
