50km too much for a 90kg missile. I would say 25km. At 50km the missile will not have enough energy to hit fighter jet.

Indeed . I just hope they can manfacture 2 LCA in 1 year. There is no point in taking Tejas delivery in 2027/28

No sir they are talking about upgrading before all foc delivery. But now IAF is pushing them . Most probably they will be done by IAF itself. The plan was after delivery of foc , IOC will be converted . But they didn't count on there delays delays delays. According to our hal timelines IAF would...

@WARREN SS I told you that Tejas IOC don't have BVR as of now . Now watch the proof.

The gun is not ready. It is one of the concessions given by IAF for Tejas foc.

Maybe but who knows it could be derby er too.. I just hope hal could make Tejas faster

Just out of my curiosity which bvr on Tejas will have 100km range.?

Rest assured until FOC Tejas 1st squadrons is commissioned there would be no Tejas at forward bases. We don't want to have attrition rate of 1:1 .

Money is the only solution . France will give there hot core technology in favour of billions of dollars + additional defence contracts . Same goes with Russia too albeit less amount of money. USA clearly denied any involvement whatsoever . Lastly DRDO can also build it but it requires dedicated...

It's a big maybe . Right now we know only derby missile with 50km range is integrated on Tejas. Do you remember there were plans for python missile to but what happened to that .? There were vibrations . In layman's terms it was not suitable for Tejas . I only believe that Astra will see the...

Nothing more than dream for various reasons. Naval tender is pushed back years if not decade. Not to mention that f18 and Rafale both aren't designed for ski take off . We will pay full price for half the capabilities of these aircrafts. Contrary to popular belief in naval aircrafts weapons load...

That's your reply . Okay whatever you say i agree completely :-)

Astra mk2 would be only as good as I derby er . Meteor is in different league. No mainly it's ramjet motor because missiles burn for only few seconds, but if you can sustain thrust for a while then you would have tremendous kinetic energy near a maneuverable aircraft. Do you know nobody is...

How can you compare dual pulse motor missile with ramjet motor missile. The difference is quite big. Astra mk2 will not match meteor at all. Sfdr will match meteor

Ofcourse I am talking about Gripen Ng. Tejas mk1a is still 3 years away. And even then Gripen Ng will be better than Tejas mk1a. And it's not only about meteor but Gripen has many other technologies that Tejas mk1a will not have.

My opinion is based on someone else's opinion who knows these kinds of stuff better than your or me. :-) . IAF pilots were very impressed with Gripen and Rafale because of the sensor fusion in both of these aircrafts. Tejas doesn't come close to it. Infact Tejas doesn't come close to even m2k...

Bhai Gripen has inbuilt 360 ew system . Tejas doesn't come close to it. It have latest solid state technology . We plan to incorporate these technologies in probably Tejas mk2/MWF and AMCA.

Gripen will trump both Tejas and Tejas mk1a. I in no way demeaning Tejas but I just think Gripen is that much good especially with meteor missile

Elta 2052 radar has 3 variants. With 300, 500, 1500 tr modules .The biggest one can even fit in f15 nose. On top of that ship RCS and aircraft RCS isn't comparable at all.

The same person who Posted that pic. :-)
