    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    Re: ADA LCA Tejas - IV That guy's claims are all as usual wrong. for proper comparison you should compare gripen c with tejas mk1 and gripen e with tejas mk2. Comparing gripen e specs with tejas mk1 specs is plain wrong. And gripens superior sustained turn rate is given for lower temp close...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    Re: ADA LCA Tejas - IV People give thrust to weight ratio of JF-17 taking into account emergency thrust mode of Rd-93 engine , so the difference appears to me marginal. But in reality the difference is higher. Also we need three factors to determine the agility of the fighter, 1. thrust...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    Re: ADA LCA Tejas - IV Sir, the same veteran air marshal has said that after FOC , tejas is equal to gripen . now you can stop worrying. But another veteran Air marshal matheswaran is saying now we need canards, twin engine on tejas!?!?!. And he says tejas is far below mig-21 and...

    They will kill many unarmed container carriers with this missile perhaps,

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    Shourya too has such trajectory if i am not mistaken, To kill a carrier it has to behave like a cruise missile on it's final approach . hitting a forewarned moving maneuvering carrier in a ballistic path is highly complex. And in it's final phase it will have to take on the carriers anti...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    You can't even stand the full quote of the ACM means you are not an angel for argument either. So instead arguing with me read the following quote of ACM to your heart's content, http://www.indiastrategic.in/topstories889.htm...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    He clearly referred it to MIG-21++ with pre IOC -2 parameter, He also said once it completes all it's FOC parameter it will be a far different beast .And MK-2 will be just short of grippen NG-----His exact words. So that implies Mk-1 to be in the grippen C/D league nothing to be ashamed of,

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    Why as a citizen of Pakistan you have put so much trust in ACM's words? Do you even know what he said in full? he said tejas is Mig-21 ++ now, but with full FOC and full opening of flight envelope it is equivalent to Grippen, But the DDM as usual had a field day leaving out the latter part...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    Farhan No-2, 3 on the list are not even jet fighters!!!!!!! B2 is a bomber which can't even wag it's tail in front of a jet fighter and the night hawk is primarily a strike aircraft and once it was shot down by old Soviet style Serbian SAM battery , it was hurriedly withdrawn fron service...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    that is the problem mate. Most of the PLAF anf PAF fighter has a RCS of 5 sq meter, But Tejas will have less than half of that in air to air mode. thats what I meant that tejas will always see first and shoot first against any PLAF or PAf fighter in operation. What is the TWR of JFT...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    Not on paper it demonstrated it on the skies in Aeroindia -2013, and on the Goa skies in hot trials. No amount of hard points is going to help JFT a inferior design fighter , because tejas mk-1 has a higher powered radar ,and lower clean config RCS, higher thrust to weight ratio than JFT in...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    No tech demo , go to LCA Tejas -IV thread here, It's specs are closer to Grippen C/D , F-C/D specs. Tejas mk-2 will match grippen NG specs, So you can't call MK-1 tech demo by any standard . Then most of PAF will be below trainer level if we use the same analogy.

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    you are never going to grow up, Do you think GOI will throw the 40 GE-F-404 IN 20 and 100 odd GE-f-414 IN S 6 engines in to the Arabian Sea? First please pray for the pilots of the non operation ejection seat JF-17 , as IAF prepares to close down the Mig-21 fleet with LCAs within five or six...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    Serial production has begun and engine aiframe orders for various vendors were already given. And SP-1, SP-2 are under construction. And 100 GE-F-414- In S6 engine orders for general electric has already been given for mk-2. SO regardless of whether FOC is finished or not IAF knows the safety...

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    You can count on the link to post some even more venerable historic news on tejas , true to it's past track record. PAF inducts the junk fighter because it has no options . IAf inducts mk-2 after the production of only 40 Mk-1 because the MK-2 option is available to it. thats all.

    LCA Tejas vs JF-17 Thunder

    What are all the stabilizing items to be removed? You have a very poor understanding of aerodynamics. The design must be completely redone from scratch to get a fully relaxed static stability F-15. it is wrong to say that once you introduce LREX and DSI, the fighter becomes RSS. First you...
