What If India’s Tejas Had America’s F-35 Engine? | WION Podcast

In this episode, we imagine what India’s Tejas fighter jet would look like if it were powered by the mighty engine of America’s F-35 stealth aircraft. The Tejas Mk1 currently uses the GE F404, delivering 85 kN of thrust, but the Pratt & Whitney F135 produces an enormous 191 kN. On paper, this could push Tejas into the heavyweight class with more speed, range, and payload capacity. But in reality, the mismatch in size, heat, and weight would overwhelm Tejas’s airframe and systems. Installing such an engine would demand a complete redesign of the jet. Join us as we uncover why fighter engines and airframes must always be engineered together.
