Rolls-Royce and Reliance Partner for Indigenous AMCA Fighter Engine Development
Rolls-Royce and Reliance Industries Limited have announced a collaboration to develop an indigenous engine for India's AMCA fighter jet. This partnership aims to enhance India's aerospace capabilities and reduce reliance on foreign technology.

Rolls-Royce and Reliance Industries Limited are teaming up to create a combat engine for India's Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) program. The Indian Ministry of Defence has invited three consortiums to submit bids for five prototypes, none of which are engine manufacturers.
The collaboration will explore establishing an Aerospace Gas Turbine Complex in India to foster local expertise in engine design, development, and manufacturing. The government is pursuing a 120-kilonewton engine and is evaluating proposals, focusing on technology transfer and Indian ownership of intellectual property. This partnership may strengthen the Indian defense sector and align with the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative while addressing the long-standing challenges in developing indigenous fighter engines.
