I am not denying that 4.5++ gen fighters will be irrelevant in near future. We have already depleting squadrons and enemy is increasing his strength. How many years do you think our Airforce need to wait for mk2 when enemy is sitting at the border.

Well if this is true then we can park any discussion here for another 3 years. As nothing going happen before that. Hail Indian defense stake holders pointing fingers at each other's and dragging things so late that we will start questioning is it really required now.

Good plan kick the Modi out who is pro indigenization but doing delay in funding projects and get the Congress who doesn't want to procure anything or if at all want to procure they want it from foreign player as it gives them kickbacks.

I still do not understand when we are speaking about class of fighter either medium or light, From where procurement of fighter comes in. Anyway I am not interested to prolong discussion on this one.

Ok what way that thing liked to my comment.

Hmm. There is no well defined parameters for medium category. If IAF want to call mk2 as LCA then we need to follow it. If they want to 25 Ton aircrafts like rafale, AMCA as medium weight category fighters what we need to call the fighters which are 2/3 weight category of them. End of the day...

Totally out of context who is speaking about MMRCA or MRFA. We are discussing about whether mk2 is medium category fighter or light category fighter.

Even Gripen E and f16 is considered as light weight category. Since we build LCA which is even smaller than above 2 does not promote them to medium weight category. Likewise mk2 does not give you that range and weapon carrying capacity that are comparable to medium weight fighter.

Changing goal post thing is there I too accept. But you need to give credit to IAF for their past procurements where they have purchased the things best of it's category which they can offer. None of the purchases are useless. Also they improved them a lot after the purchase. So they know how to...

We are not USA and IAF do not have black cheque to place order and pay advance and wait for years to come. They will take decisions according to their requirements and cash limitations. One of the common things I observed in many forum members is they speak as if money is not at all a constraint...

Well you are wrong on AMCA. IAF choose AMCA because of no option. Remember their first choice pakfa. Since it is not useful and no other player will offer 5g tech iaf came to conclusion and started supporting AMCA. Always iaf wanted to customize imported aircrafts but no country is offering tot...

Our love for indiginized aircrafts should not blind us. IAF firm on their stance i.e. 6 squadron from 2017 and until now as per shared video. Also current IAF chief told order will increase based on performance of the aircraft. What is the conspiracy in that. Why we are in such a haste

Army told they will procure 7 squadron of LCH. LCA is already order for 83+40 in numbers. ALH were inducted into Indian Navy. Indian made destroyers, aircraft carriers etc etc are getting inducted into Navy. So what is your point. Modi needs to push defense products forcefully onto to Army and...

What can be the combat range of Tejas MkII any guesses

Can anybody explain how good Tejas Mk2 will be in comparison with J10c. Is having bigger powerplant on J10 will give it's an edge over Tejas?
