AMCA - Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (HAL)

[THESIS THORON]

When did that happen

Tenders for manufacturing of prototypes are out sometimes ago. Mk2 is getting GaN aesa confirmed.

I heard that radar will be fabricated by march 2022

is this true ??

 

[The Shrike]

Newer F-35s do have iirc

AFAIK the only in service fighters with GaN radars are crusty old F-18 c/d of USMC (and Canadians too i think) that recently got that upgrade.

 

[Lonewolf]

Nope. I have that particular researchpaper. Its available in full to anyone

Post it please

Ya F-35 production started way before so it will feature GaN radar in near future.

So as per shook-law's blogspot , AMCA will carry 1.5T internal weapons + 5 ton external weapons + 6.5 T internal fuel = 13 T.

Since MTOW is 25T, so empty weight will be 12 Tons.

If mtow is just 25 tons and AMCA mk1 will have 2 f414 with 10ton each so 20 ton thrust. That's a pretty good TWR.

In stealth configuration mtow is just 20 tons and TWR then is Superb 1.

About supercruise from Wikipedia

The two Snecma M88s that power the Dassault Rafale enables the Rafale to supercruise with four missiles and a belly drop tank.[11]

So Rafale can supercruise with 4 missiles with just 100 Kn ( 10 ton) dry thrust by 2 M88.

AMCA will have 116 kn (11.6 ton) dry thrust with 2 f414 . So it should be able to do the same.

so is it better than korean ones ??

You mean amca one?

 

[IndianHawk]

AMCA even in mk1 phase is leagues ahead of kfx . As kfx mk1 has no internal bays .

Besides india is far ahead in development of radar , avionics and even air to air missiles etc. The base we build for lca is far more robust compared to what minimum work South Korean did for fa-50. All that hard works puts us much ahead of Koreans currently in aerospace engineering.

If you are talking about AMCA mk-1 than well that is way ahead of the Korean KF-X fighter.

Korean KF-X is not Meant to be a 5th generation fighter aircraft, maybe in the near future we may see a 5th generation version of it though in the form of maybe a Mark-2?

So again I say that the KF-X is not supposed to be a 5th gen Aircraft but it's actually supposed to be a 4.5 Generation Aircraft and AMCA will be 5th Gen Aircraft, so AMCA is well ahead of the KF-X and there is no Comparison between the Two Aircrafts.

I was asking abt ir absorbing meta material

I was asking abt ir absorbing meta material

IR Absorbing Material? Oh I don't know about this though.

I am not sure about which will be superior in terms of IR Absorbing Material, whether it will be AMCA or KF-X but in my opinion, I believe That AMCA will be superior in this case because Generation wise it will be ahead of the KF-X.

I was asking abt ir absorbing meta material

That's the problem there is very little research info on ir meta materials in indian research instittutes. I found just one guy in IIT K and his team is working on it. On the other hand there is truckloads on radar absorbers in india.

 

[Super Flanker]

Expressed Interest? Oh no no no no. Please no Heck, there is no Way that we are going for the Korean KF-X. There is absolutely no way that Indian Airforce will go for this plane.

are u sure , check faculty of top 5 iit and their achievements u will get a good surprise

Selective dual-band metamaterial perfect absorber for infrared stealth technology - Scientific Reports

We propose a dual-band metamaterial perfect absorber with a metal–insulator–metal structure (MIM) for use in infrared (IR) stealth technology. We designed the MIM structure to have surface plasmon polariton (SPP) and magnetic polariton (MP) resonance peaks at 1.54 μm and 6.2 μm, respectively...

Bro sorry, I was just Worried after hearing That news and nothing else. I just Expressed my opinion.

I have a request Here.
Could you kindly post whatever information you have with relation to IR materials in India with Regards to AMCA and our other Aerospace projects?

recently the korean PM also commented that their FA50 is better than the Gripen C...such confidence...contrast that with our media A-holes and pseudo-experts and their treatment to a Tejas thats superior to FA50!
