Tejas Mk. 2 in beast mode.

I will admit only after official statement.

Ok. Let's hope in any of the next interview, someone should ask about this. Finger crossed. Back to Tejas Mk. 2 discussion. 😊

If you have doubts, you can go to them and consult them. Their design philosophy was stealth as well as super manoeuvrability.

It does not need but they will include it.

And AMCA is not super manoeuvrable? If I am not mistaken, its twr ratio is more than MKI. Wing Loading is also better. Not to mention it has also 3D thrust vectoring.

I admit but I was talking about dogfighting in DCS. Now I know that it is no where relieble. But still I am excited for Tejas Mk. 2 vs. Raptor dogfighting.

In BVR, The scenario will remain the same even if MKI is made Super Sukhoi. Only AMCA can beat Super Sukhoi in both BVR and dogfighting.

That is an excuse of IAF. When inducted, Tejas Mk. 2 will hold on its on against Chinese J-10 and J-16. It will scare Chinese pilots, I guarantee.

1 decade old number is not applicable at present. They estimated FGFA to be around 120 million dollar, because it is no where stealthy enough compared to F-22. That's why they ordered in huge quantity first.

Give me the source for 200 AMCAs as per IAF.

You are saying 200 AMCAs and 80+ Tejas Mk.2s. I am saying 140 AMCAs and 270 Tejas Mk.2s. Huge difference.

You can't fight with 5th generation fighter. They are meant to take out the radars, SAMs, adversary fighters and AWACs early on. Rest of destruction is done by 4.5 generation fighters. Because enough resources and funds are used for building the stealth fighter as VLO as possible, it is not...

What you are proposing is very good for reading, but can't be possible.

I am just waiting for Tejas Mk. 2 to be included in DCS. I want to see dogfighting between Tejas Mk. 2 and F-22. If Gripen-E has sometimes beaten F-22 in dogfighting, Tejas Mk. 2 can too.

It will be the decision of IAF, not mine.

No, it should be 270 Tejas Mk. 2s (15 Sqdns), 36 AMCA Mk. 1s (2 Sqdns) and 90 AMCA Mk. 2s (5 Sqdns). There you go 15+2+5 = 22 Squadrons of modern fighters.
