On the debate of EOTS vs IRST on AMCA: The main complaint I see from many is that the conventional IRST design will cause a greater RCS return in comparison to a EOTS whose shape is tailored made to reflect as little radar return as possible. In short: "basically the EOTS design is stealthy...

Apologies if already posted before but still decided post all of them in one post.

So it seems that AMCA has finally recieved CCS approval. This should have been done a few years ago, now the funds for AMCA will be sanctioned and the prototypes can commence construction.

If you want actual data that has come from testing the F-35 then there is one thing that can give you the data about an aircraft's tests: Flight manual. Some aircrafts have their flight manuals available to the public domain to access such as F-16, F-15, F-18, MiG-21, MiG etc but you will not...

HARD DATA? what exactly you mean by hard data? =>Information from flight manual? =>Words of an aviator? =>An article by an engineer? Or an interview with the aircraft's manufacturers? =>Do you want to a physical airframe to pilot and validate the abilities for yourself? Etc. Actually you...

In my opinion=> As long as the aircraft has fuel to power its on-board engines, it will be able to sustain supercruise/supersonic flight with AB, ofcourse before you run out of fuel, incase your aircraft has an IFR probe, then it can refuel itself with the help of a aerial refuelling tanker. So...

You are partially correct. The time limit for supersonic flight is only for the "B" and "C" variant. F-35A doesn't have any supersonic flight speed limit. "The F-35C can fly at a top speed of Mach 1.3 for 50 cumulative seconds, while the F-35B is limited to 40 seconds at Mach 1.3. The version...

Everyone is making up their own timelines for the AMCA, Tejas MK-2, TEDBF etc! Like come on, I understand your pessimism but at least try to be a little bit more optimistic with respect to the timeline. What we need to know is that we are all civilians, or most of us on the forum are from civil...

No, AMCA MK-1 will have an internal Bay. It was designed from the beginning to possess internal Weopons bays, and every Iteration of AMCA from MK-1, MK-2 and beyond will possess these internal weopon bays. AMCA MK-1 will be a fifth generation aircraft in the category of F-35, F-22, J-20...

Everyone is talking about the Korean KF-21 and comparing it with the AMCA. Honestly, it makes no sense to compare the two programs. AMCA from the start has been designed as a fifth generation fighter as in the likes of F-22, F-35, J-20, Su-57 PAKFA. The Korean KF-21 in its current configuration...

I am pretty sure that this was talked about before too on this thread but still thought I might want to repost it cause I think it's worth discussing again. 1:4 scaled model of the internal Weopons bay of AMCA. In comparison, if we see videos of the F-35 it seems that from opening the...

I expect the AMCA to be equipped with weopons and sensors similar to the ones used on the American F-35 and F-22, I am leaning more towards the F-35 though because even in design and weight category, it is very similar to the F-35 too if a comparison were to be made. So let's talk about...

Seriously? What is the admin of HAL's twitter page doing? All this kind of stuff would be something that my higher secondary would tweet if we made something like a drone/Quadcopter or in worst case, some shitty paper plane. :pound:this is not something that a professional organisation like HAL...

In my previous post I was discussing only about the max load out of AAMs of contemporary 5th generation fighters such as Su-57, J-20, F-22 etc. That is why I kept on stressing on the term "missile", though I do not mean to say that a missile is only a weapon that can destroy aerial targets. To...

It's been a long time since I posted on this thread but I wanted to speak about the missile carrying capacity of the AMCA. As the AMCA is projected to be a fifth generation fighter, it makes more sense to first take a glance at current fifth generation aircraft such as F-22, J-20, F-35, Su-57...

No need to tilt towards SAAB for any type of technology for the AMCA. We can build everything for the AMCA in India itself, be it the advanced radar, the wings, the cockpit, the weopons etc.. everything except the engine. For the engine I believe we have an agreement in place with France's...

X posting from another thread! Already posted on the Aero India 2023 thread but as this was related to AMCA program, decided to post it here as well. So behold, Cockpit Simulator of AMCA from Aero India 2023.

There is a video on YouTube, it's called as "End Run". It's an animated short film inspired from the 2019 Balakot strikes. It was made by Indian Animators, check on description of that video, it gives all details about who wrote, directed, animated the film & stuff. It was a very well done...

We already have good photographers who click some high resolution videos & photos, it's only that we need to improve a little bit on the choice of background music and I would say to some extent, we need to improve our editing too. Also along with editing & background music, we need a team which...

OH! Thank you for reminding me about that, I really think that we need to improve on our marketing qualities. I have seen some videos of our armed forces, in which the footage is very decent in quality but the background music is absolutely HORRIBLE, it's literally cringe to the core, like some...
