You can, however, fly in several genuine ex-military jets today via MiGFlug.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Who designed the HF-24 Marut?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The German engineer Kurt Tank, designer of the Focke-Wulf Fw 190, whom Hindustan Aircraft recruited in 1956 to lead India's first indigenous jet-fighter programme.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Why was the Marut underpowered?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"It was designed around a reheated Bristol Orpheus that was never funded, so it flew on two non-afterburning Orpheus 703 engines with about 40% less thrust and never reached its intended Mach 2.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Did the Marut see combat?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes. In the 1971 Indo-Pakistani War two IAF squadrons flew it in low-level ground attack. It proved rugged, downed a Pakistani F-86 Sabre and lost none of its number in air-to-air combat.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How fast was the HF-24 Marut?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"About Mach 1.02 (roughly 1,112 km\/h), just supersonic. The airframe was designed for Mach 2 but the lack of a suitable afterburning engine held it back.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How many HF-24 Maruts were built?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"About 147 in total, including some 16 to 18 two-seat Mk.1T trainers.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is the HF-24 Marut still in service?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"No. It was retired in 1990.

With almost no aeronautical industry to draw on, Hindustan Aircraft (later Hindustan Aeronautics, HAL) turned to one of the great names of piston-era aviation \u2014 <strong>Kurt Tank<\/strong>, the German engineer behind the Focke-Wulf Fw&nbsp;190. Tank arrived in Bangalore in 1956 to lead a design office that started life barely fifty people strong, with no proper prototype shop or flight-test facilities.<\/p>\n<p>What that small team produced was remarkable. The <strong>HF-24 Marut<\/strong> \u2014 the name comes from the Maruts, the storm gods of Vedic myth \u2014 was a clean, twin-engined, area-ruled design that first flew on <strong>17 June 1961<\/strong> in the hands of test pilot <strong>Wing Commander Suranjan Das<\/strong>. Aerodynamically it was sound and genuinely supersonic-capable: it was the first jet fighter designed in Asia outside the Soviet bloc, and by some distance the most ambitious.<\/p>\n<p>The tragedy of the Marut was written into its engines. Tank had designed the airframe around a reheated (afterburning) version of the <strong>Bristol Orpheus<\/strong>, the BOr.12, which would have given roughly the thrust needed for the intended Mach&nbsp;2. But developing that engine required money India chose not to spend, and the reheated Orpheus was never funded. The Marut instead flew on two <strong>non-afterburning Orpheus 703<\/strong> turbojets of about 21.6&nbsp;kN each \u2014 far short of what the design called for. The result was an aircraft that looked like a Mach-2 fighter and handled like one, but topped out at barely <strong>Mach 1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Underpowered or not, the Marut proved its worth where it mattered. In the <strong>1971 Indo-Pakistani War<\/strong> two IAF squadrons flew it hard in the low-level ground-attack role over the desert of the western front. Pilots praised its ruggedness, stability as a gun and rocket platform, and high serviceability; one Marut even shot down a Pakistani F-86 Sabre, and none was lost in air-to-air combat. Repeated attempts to give the aircraft the engine it deserved all failed, and the type was finally retired in <strong>1990<\/strong> \u2014 an airframe that was always better than its powerplant allowed it to be.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pull\">A Mach-2 airframe married to a Mach-1 engine \u2014 the Marut is the story of ambition outrunning its industry.<cite><b>India\u2019s first jet fighter<\/b> \u2014 and the engine it never got<\/cite><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"deepset\">\n<details class=\"deep\">\n<summary><span class=\"no\">01<\/span><span class=\"t\">The HF-24 Marut\u2019s engine problem: the reheated Orpheus that was never funded<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">\n<p>Kurt Tank sized the Marut around a reheated Bristol Orpheus, the <strong>BOr.12<\/strong>, which with afterburner promised roughly 8,000&nbsp;lbf of thrust per engine \u2014 enough to push the clean airframe toward its designed Mach&nbsp;2. That engine, however, had been developed for a wider light-fighter effort and needed a substantial further investment (commonly cited at around \u00a313&nbsp;million) to bring to production. India declined to fund it, and no other government picked up the bill.<\/p>\n<p>Left without its intended powerplant, the Marut entered service on two <strong>non-afterburning Orpheus 703<\/strong> engines of about 4,850&nbsp;lbf (21.6&nbsp;kN) each \u2014 roughly 40% less thrust than the design assumed. HAL and its partners spent years chasing an alternative: a Soviet RD-9F, an Egyptian \u201cE-300\u201d turbojet developed at Helwan (abandoned after the 1967 war), and HAL\u2019s own reheated Orpheus 703R, which flew in test airframes but never entered series production. The Marut therefore never reached the performance its aerodynamics allowed \u2014 the central \u201cwhat if\u201d of the whole programme.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"divider\">\n<section>\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">Design &amp; Engineering<\/div>\n<h2>What makes it special<\/h2>\n<div class=\"cards3\">\n<div class=\"ecard\">\n<div class=\"num\">01<\/div>\n<h3>A clean, area-ruled supersonic airframe<\/h3>\n<p>The Marut was the <strong>first jet fighter designed in Asia outside the Soviet bloc<\/strong>, and it looked the part: a sharply swept wing, a slim \u201ccoke-bottle\u201d <strong>area-ruled fuselage<\/strong> to cut transonic drag, and twin side intakes feeding two engines.

You <b>can<\/b>, however, fly in several genuine ex-military jets today \u2014 see <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/flights-prices\/\">migflug.com\/flights-prices\/<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Who designed the HF-24 Marut?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">The German engineer <strong>Kurt Tank<\/strong>, famous for the Focke-Wulf Fw&nbsp;190 fighter of the Second World War. Hindustan Aircraft recruited him in 1956 to lead India\u2019s first indigenous jet-fighter programme in Bangalore.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Why was the Marut underpowered?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">It was designed around a reheated (afterburning) version of the Bristol Orpheus that was never funded. It flew instead on two non-afterburning Orpheus 703 engines with roughly 40% less thrust than the design assumed, so it never reached its intended Mach&nbsp;2.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Did the Marut see combat?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">Yes. In the 1971 Indo-Pakistani War two IAF squadrons flew it in low-level ground attack over the western desert. It proved rugged and effective, downed a Pakistani F-86 Sabre in air combat, and lost none of its number to enemy fighters.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How fast was the HF-24 Marut?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">About <strong>Mach 1.02<\/strong> (~1,112 km\/h) \u2014 just supersonic. The airframe was designed for Mach&nbsp;2, but the lack of a suitable afterburning engine kept it to barely over the speed of sound.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How many HF-24 Maruts were built?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">About <strong>147<\/strong> in total, including some 16\u201318 two-seat Mk.1T trainers. Production ran through the 1960s and 1970s.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Is the HF-24 Marut still in service?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">No. It was retired in 1990. India\u2019s next indigenous fighter, the <strong>HAL Tejas<\/strong>, did not enter squadron service until decades later.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section>\n<div class=\"ad\">\n<div class=\"adin\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">The part of the collection you can touch<\/div>\n<h2>You can\u2019t fly the Marut.<br \/>These, you can.<\/h2>\n<p class=\"adp\">Some legends only live in museums \u2014 others are fuelled and waiting.
