This is typically defined in the Request for Proposal (RFP) of the usage of the engine on an aircraft and the typical mission profile of that aircraft in various phases of flight. [...] The tight tolerances in the fabrication and the quality control during various heat treatments to get the right characteristics of the component is a subject in itself. [...] The core engine is the heart of the system design that converts the thermal energy of the fuel combustion to an efficient rotary motion for the compressors and turbines. [...] It is in the interest of the LCA/AMCA project that the aero engine project is not linked to the timelines. [...] This was the 110 kW turbo shaft engine (GTSU-110/127) for starting the LCA engine, the 60 kW starter generator engine for starting the AI-20D engine of the AN-32 aircraft, the air producer engine for starting the Adour-811, the 871 engines of the Jaguar and Hawk aircraft and the auxiliary power unit for the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) class aircraft.
