 The ADA awarded General Electric a 105 million contract in February 2004 for development engineering and production of 17 F404-IN20 engines, delivery of which is to begin in 2006.In mid-2004, the "Kaveri" failed its high-altitude tests in Russia, ending the last hopes of introducing it with the first production "Tejas" aircraft.This unfortunate development led the Indian Ministry of Defence (MoD) to order 40 more IN20 engines in 2005 for the first 20 production aircraft, and to openly appeal for international participation in completing development of the "Kaveri".
