As long as he doesn’t give it to DRDO or HAL or NAL. At least we will get a plane that way.He will only give it to his master Adani

We are all just wasting our time in discussing Regional Transport OR Passenger aircraft. It practically not going to shape.This project is doomed from the start. The RTA 90 is nothing but re inventing the the wheel. It is the same in every way to the tried and tested ATR 72, nearly 2000 have been built over the years we can no way equal the cost of production per unit compared to the ATR. Thats all. Same story with the saras project. Its extremely difficult to get civil rating for an aircraft.
TATAs might be in the process of doing just that. A while back, there was a news about TATA trying to acquire IP rights for defunct RTA and Transport aircraft projects. If it succeeds TATA may indeed be building a RTA in India. Besides, the C-295 being assembled at TASL facility at Baroda, has the potential of being modified into a RTA aircraft. After all, Indonesia used a converted variant of CN-235 as a RTA aircraft to fly off remote airfields. If CN-235 can do it so can C-295, after all C-295 is about 20% larger than the baseline version of CN-235.Someone should ask Ambani/TATA and Adani etc. to show some real entrepreneurship and risk some of their loot for national cause.
they are screw driver kingSomeone should ask Ambani/TATA and Adani etc. to show some real entrepreneurship and risk some of their loot for national cause.
Why do you think that Adani is a problem when he actually creates and builds things that the government can't do because it lacks the knowledge or funding?He will only give it to his master Adani
The B J P has always been against freebies but it's the opposition corrupt jihadi party who announces these freebies to win a election just to get into power. What the common man doesn't realise is that any tax incentive they receive they or there kids will end up paying double the amount just to pay the interest on the loan.India government has to fund and PMO should directly monitor the progress of these projects .
Foreign assistance also will be required from day one.
But given Indian fund crunch issues, governments has to spend on freebies to win elections, still a agricultural based economy , its hard to do these type of projects until and unless the government of the day made its mind and give a big push cutting across party line.
Money isn’t an issue. GoI is expected to take almost 15 lakh crores of debt this year. Assuming 16000 crores spread over 5 years, this project needs only 3200 crores annually, which is negligible for GoI. Problem is that GoI knows that HAL and NAL can’t be trusted to develop anything worthwhile. They can only operate when Indian armed forces are involved because MoD will force them to buy substandard products at double triple prices. No one in an actual competitive market will buy from DPSUs.Where there is will there is a way. HAL market cap is 2 lac crore. If no funds being allocated, ask govt to bring rights issue for 20K crore. Invest in R&D for proposed 90 seater and also go for 15,000 KM range ~300 passenger and 16-18,000KM ~400 passenger capacity planes. India has a booming civil market. Importing or screwdriving and putting a make in India sticker will hurt.
LAL SALAM , COMRADE slogans will not help your state Chetta. You guys have to shed out leftist attitude and move towards encouraging new industries to be set up in your state. Remember SINGUR , WB . If not your state survival will solely depend upon on Gulf moneyAs long as he doesn’t give it to DRDO or HAL or NAL. At least we will get a plane that way.
The critical part is aero engines.Civil aircraft rated for passenger travel have to be exceptionally reliable with components sych as actuators often rated for a million flight hours. They need to incorporate a highly redundant fail-safe architecture where most avionics have quadruple redundancies.
While aero engines are indeed critical, the most critical part would be navigation and control avionics. These avionics need to be fail-safe and need a highly redundant architecture.The critical part is aero engines.
The article sites funding hurdles as the reason. BTW, which other organisation in India is capable of pulling such projects thru?Money isn’t an issue. GoI is expected to take almost 15 lakh crores of debt this year. Assuming 16000 crores spread over 5 years, this project needs only 3200 crores annually, which is negligible for GoI.
