Lca Tejas passes the test at leh

Yo my name sake has passed the high altitude and low temprature test in leh..

here is a link

And here is how it was tested

“Reports from the trial location suggest that the current phase of flight trial was progressing with aircraft and systems performing well. Officials said the aircraft were soaked overnight in cold weather, with temperature around minus 20 degrees Celsius and successfully powered up next day for operation.”

All this using a GE 404 engine and not a kaveri engine….it just saddens me that kaveri is a failure till now and this the time when we need it the most.

But none the less Tejas passed with flying colors
