Domestic aerospace startup, Dg Propulsion Private Limited (DPPL), has made significant strides in India’s indigenous defence manufacturing by showcasing its turbojet engine. This engine is set to power the upcoming high-speed UAVs being developed by state-owned Bharat Dynamics Limited (BDL) for the Indian Army.  

While specific details about the engine’s capabilities remain undisclosed, DPPL has previously unveiled its DG J40 mini jet engine and the more powerful DG J60 small turbojet engine. These engines, entirely developed in India, have the potential to propel not only UAVs but also cruise missiles.  

The DG J60, in particular, boasts impressive specifications, including an outer diameter of 207mm, a length of 600mm, and a weight of 11kg. It generates a thrust of 588 Newtons, with a maximum RPM of 74,000. The engine has a pressure ratio of 3.5 and consumes 2200ml of fuel per minute at full throttle. Notably, it can achieve a maximum speed of Mach 0.8, equivalent to 1000 km/h.

This breakthrough by DPPL signifies a major leap forward for India’s aerospace industry, reducing reliance on foreign technology and strengthening the nation’s defence capabilities. As the company continues to refine its engine technology, it is anticipated that it will play a pivotal role in powering a new generation of high-performance aerial platforms.
