Tejas Mk-1A delivery may face delay due to a crucial Danish component being on the export blacklist

Tejas Mk-1A delivery may face delay due to a crucial Danish component being on the export blacklist. India is currently negotiating with Denmark on the issue of engine charge amplifiers, while HAL has engaged a local company to localize the production of these components. HAL was scheduled to commence the delivery in March.

The delivery of the Tejas Mk-1A fighter jets to the Indian Air Force (IAF) may face additional delays as a crucial component, the engine charge amplifier, originally planned to be imported from Denmark, has been placed on an export blacklist by the country. 

This would result in a further extension to the existing delay of several months due to the lack of engine deliveries from American manufacturer General Electric (GE) and the necessary adjustments to the Israeli software integrated into the aircraft. Regarding the charge amplifiers, sources in the defense establishment informed that the Ministry of Defence has raised the issue with Denmark through the Indian embassy. State-owned Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), which produces the fighters, has already engaged a local company to localize the product. Sources also noted that while these amplifiers are integrated into the older generation of Tejas aircraft currently in use by the Indian Air Force, the contract for the 83 LCA (Light Combat Aircraft) Mk-1As remains pending.

When questioned about the delay, a source mentioned, "Denmark has imposed export restrictions on this particular item, possibly due to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict." We have raised the matter with our Indian embassy there. According to sources, HAL is actively progressing with the indigenization effort.
