D1 is only for baseline thrust, material integrity, and accelerated endurance. In 2026 D2 & D3 Will go into endurance trials for 150 hrs under High altitude condition D4 and D5 will then undergo qualification tests for 300-500 hours.

@shreedharsingh9 Image depicts a 3D render of the dry variant Kaveri engine, a non-afterburning turbofan achieving 48 kN thrust as of September 2025, marking progress from the original 1986 program plagued by delays. Hope this goes through.... 🔥🔥💪

@shreedharsingh9 @grok why we can use D1 for all the tests?

@shreedharsingh9 It will happen now . Earlier there was no private sector involvement but now there is. It will happen soon

@shreedharsingh9 The betichod in MoD who didn't okayed the HATF because someone said Our facility in Russia is sitting idle you can always use it should be killed in front of firing squad, only then we'll have all the test facilities and funds.

@shreedharsingh9 Thanks for sharing If this doesn’t convince folks that the original Kaveri had serious integrity & endurance problem that were not disclosed publicly then what will ? The red herring of x% thrust plus the lack of appreciation of how engines are realized has led so many astray

@shreedharsingh9 They should design two variants of ghatak one with al31 FP engine. Which can be fast tracked. Other a smaller one with KDE.

@shreedharsingh9 Say HATB testing when Russia makes the slots available. Beggars can't be choosers.

@shreedharsingh9 WHERE IS THE FUCKING FLYING TEST BED?

@shreedharsingh9 So basically Ghatak before 2030 is a pipedream. Each of these HATF will require Russia do give their slots. We know how it has been last time around. Meanwhile IAF will do the humiliation ritual to ADE on absolutely no fault of the latter just to import. Okhotnik coming.

@shreedharsingh9 When we gonna see D1 with tejas as testbed??

@shreedharsingh9 Tejas mein kaun sa lagega

@shreedharsingh9 Source @DDNewslive 4th October video

@shreedharsingh9 Which one will be integrated with the new afterburner?

@shreedharsingh9 Just add this on the actual platform and let it fly, that will give the data. Why wait for the HATF results?

@shreedharsingh9 Serial development ki जय हो Snail Glacial Tortoise

@shreedharsingh9 Ghatak ain't getting rolled out before 2030, kaha gaye wo defence youtubers who said it wiII come before AMCA lmao.

The summary is here: > MoD opens up missile & ammo manufacturing to private sector >No more NOC from govt run Munitions India Ltd to manufacture ammo > Private firms can now build 105mm/130mm/150mm shells plus > Pinaka rockets, 1000lb bombs, grenades & small calibre ammo >
