Our problem with engines is tooling and machining. We can design engine on paper/computer but we have difficulty is Precision machining. We are simply unable to fabricate our designs. ToT will not help us with Precision machining. As for Bofors we already had the machining capability. ATAGS...

For twin engined fighter Tata Boeing Aerospace Limited is also the contender with F-15 offering. Rafale is not a done deal. F-15 with its advanced EW Suite (AESA Jammer) is also a prime candidate.

As per you IAF is Liberandu-Sickulars IN is Liberandu-Sickulars CAG is Liberandu-Sickulars :facepalm::facepalm::facepalm: Typical post from a Russophile. Attack the messenger on basis of religious and/or cultural ground in a thread and post that require technical counter.

Let your thinking come true and AMCA be the only 5th gen aircraft in service of IAF and IN.🤞🤞🤞

IAF has reliability issue with Russian engines. IN has reliability issue with Russian engines. CAG has highlighted reliability issue with Russian engines. Their are countless article on internet highlighted reliability issue with Russian engines. You can Google them. Crash rate of these...

Basically what was happening was to avoid antagonizing US, Pakistan was buying the RD-93 engine from Russia through PRC i.e. PRC buys RD-93 engine from Russia and then resales it to Pakistan as a sub-assembly for JF-17. The whole procurement was invoiced by PRC to dodge sanctions. The sales and...

Your makes no sense. Purpose of frontline fighter aircraft is not to travel long distance cross country (i.e. inside your country. Frontline fighter aircraft are deployed on forward airbase to engage enemy fighters, escort ground attack aircraft and sometimes bomb enemy. Basically achieve...

Last time I will be telling you this. Engines are imported from Russia directly and not supplied by PRC. Russia and PRC have a understanding which states PRC can use reverse engineered (copied) engines for local usage by PRC but these engines can't be exported. In case of exported jets engine...

The only reason why Russian have twin engine design is due to unreliability of their engine. If fuel economy for the jet is the primary concern single engine jets always have a better fuel economy than twin engine jets.

You are forgetting AMCA, Tejas Mk. 1A and MRCA. AMCA Mk. 1 -> 40 aircraft AMCA Mk. 2 -> Unknown quantity (mainly to increase aircraft fleet strength) MRCA -> 108 aircraft Tejas Mk. 1A -> 82 aircraft Remaining void will be filled by Tejas Mk. 2 along with aircraft to increase fleet strength

Tejas has a production rate of 8-12 aircraft per year. Even if we increase it to 15 per year we will need will need atleast 7-8 years for 108 aircraft. Even if we start production in 2023, 2030 will be a tough deadline to meet. Kindly note 2023 is the year of first light an it take 5-6 years...

Delivery is expected to start by 2030 and not end by 2030. On an average it takes 5-6 years from first flight to mass production. If first flight is in 2023 then once can expect start of production by 2030.

Rafale mission computer is not based on open architecture design like F-18 SH hence we will have to be dependent on French for Rudram integration. Lets see if we get Rudram as part of India specific enhancements.

Unlike FGFA the aircraft in MRFA are very real, effective and technologically superior. One can say they can even be effective against Su-57 and can even dominate it. FGFA as scrapped because of sub-standard and bogus technology, exorbitant cost and Russian arrogance. This is not the case with...

IAF may or may not care about public opinion but our civilian government do cares about public opinion and our government can surely make IAF care about public opinion. At the end of day this is India and not Pakistan; out democratically elected civilian government controls all aspect of...

This commitment talk is damage control after public backlash post ACM interview.

PRC might buy part of Pakistan. It appears that their have been suggestions to transfer Pakistan Occupied Kashmir to PRC. This is a very real possibility. Cash for Land scheme. If things get tough Pakistan will stir problem in Kashmir. Anti-India sentiment is an universally unifying cause in...

Economic collapse of Pakistan is an urban myth. Post 1965 their economy is always under the drain. They will beg for money, threaten to implode (give me (Pakistan) money or I (Pakistan) will shoot myself in the foot and you (rest of the world) will be left with the mess) or just outright sell...

US won't sell F-35 to PRC but their companies or people related to the project might sell the technology for right price. PRC couldn't launch espionage against F-35 related project without inside help. The reason US didn't offer F-35 to MRFA is primarily cost and the level of trust and...

Is Uttam Mk. 1 ready for production?
