Indigenous gas turbine engine for Indian Navy

What is the name of the engine???
I read somewhere that you are using Ukranian engines in Type 52D.

QC-280, type 52C uses Ukraine, this is better, but the Diesel, which is paired with the Turbine is foreign, but maybe manufactured in China, possibly.

The engine which you use in Type 52d is licensed built in China,is that what you wanted to say??

no, it's a engine made with experience from the original Ukraine version. It's not licensed, it's not the same deal. The similarity is that they are both engines. One is better than the other.

But the other diesel engine to go with the Gas turbine is licensed build possibly. A gas turbine needs diesel engine too, the gas turbine by itself sucks. It's used for acceleration, not cruise.

You have an Indigenous naval turbine engine in Type52d and the two diesel engines i.e. "MTU 20V 956TB92" that you have mated with it for acceleration is licensed built in China.
Is that what you wanted to say??

We have it, it's in type 52D. So recently, I guess.

No... You license bought the Engine and tweaked it and Installed on Type 52d... China havn't designed or Developed it's own Engines for Naval Purposes so far

true, but we don't pay royalties if we ever had to anymore, lol.

That and it pretty much means we can make this thing on command, so it wasn't designed in China, but it did improve in China which otherwise it wouldn't be able to cause you know Ukraine is broke and all.

In the heat of battle, I don't think the origin of this thing is going to matter to anyone, other than this is a quality piece.

Is China devloping or has devloped a naval turbine engine???


Not sure but Type 052C+ uses Chinese QC-280 turbines. Chinese learned how to make turbine and makes their own, without importing. Turbines are mature technology, just have to learn it and then make it.

The first two 052 uses DA80, numbered: 170, and 171 ship. The newly built ships are 052C+ which use QC-280 gas turbine engine, it is the Chinese license build DA80 with improved performance such as increased power output from 24MW to 28MW as its name is shown 280. Every part of the QC-280 engine is made in China, without any import from a second source. This enable the Chinese to mass-produce the 052C+

Seems like Kaveri Engine can propel literally everything except the thing it was made for :lol: . It can propel trains, ships, drones, Santa Claus Chariots etc but not the god damn LCA.

China most powerful gas turbine: R0110
Output reach 114MW
Expected to be used in indigenous aircraft carrier...

So in short you have copied it.
Anyway congratulations!!!!

In case you didnt knew every country has adopted the same approach.

And about testing it on a fighter plane,read this.......

"Next year, the GTRE plans to show the engine’s performance first on an Il-76 plane and then as the second engine fitted on a twin-engined fighter like MiG-29."
