GE Aerospace–IAF F404 Depot

Issue: 04-2026

GE Aerospace has signed a contract with the Indian Air Force (IAF) to establish an in-country depot facility for F404-IN20 engines powering the IAF’s Tejas Light Combat Aircraft fleet. The facility will be owned, operated, and maintained by the IAF, with GE Aerospace providing technical inputs, training, support staff, spares, and specialised equipment. Once operational, the depot will eliminate dependence on overseas repair centres and significantly improve turnaround times.
