Reason is very simple - it is a very 100% indian product & not a copy paste of a russian product. Also the fact that India has dealt with Russian engines for many decades and may know what causes smoky engines.

Chogy, Adding to Decking's above questions -- How would a two way data linked missile help rectify the situation ? Where in a a/c simple fires away a salvo of BVR missiles and then lets the AWACS do the controlling of missiles by constant updation of co-ordinates. I believe AIM 120D and...

Russians are not helping us with Engine tech. They are helping us with testing of the engine .... To create a extensive testing lab for all scenarios for a engine is a very xpensive affair and expeerienced one at that. GTRE for the first time after all the thrashing that they got for kaveri...
