From the C-17s and C-295s, to the A320neos and ATR-42s and 72s – our engines connect people, defend freedom and grow economies across India.
GTF Engine
India operates more than 140 Airbus A320neo family aircraft powered by Pratt & Whitney GTF™ engines, which deliver industry-leading sustainability benefits and world-class operating costs, thanks to their unique geared fan architecture.
PW100/150 Engine
The engine power of India's UDAN regional aviation vision, the PW100/150 family powers nearly 90 ATR 42/72 and Q400 aircraft for airlines like IndiGo, SpiceJet and Alliance Air. The PW127G is also the engine on the Indian Air Force's latest military transport, the C-295.
PT6A
75 Pilatus PC-7 MK II trainers flown by the Indian Air Force, are powered by the iconic PT6A engine. In India, the PT6A also powers a fleet of aircraft that includes the King Air Family, Caravan family and PC-12s. PT6A is also the propulsion choice for India's NAL-SARAS MKI.
F117
Generating 40,440 pounds of thrust the F117 engines come with various technological and material advances that enable the IAF’s C-17 Globemaster IIIs to operate from numerous environments without significant compromise on operational capabilities.
