It seems entire HAL & IAF are in DFI nowadays,. Good development .
Detailed design drawings We re sent to HAL & tier 2 vendors, only after IAF cleared CDR in June 2021
And CCS sanction & financial disbursal happened only in Sept 2022,
So without money how can mfg take place?
Time lines...
Goti the page below , fr my "intimate opinion" on Vayu stratpost conferences on "lca" Tejas of yore
https://defenceforumindia.com/threads/ada-tejas-lca-news-and-discussions.1/page-418
Vayu is at it fr eons
This is my interaction with "Professor Prodyut Das " who often writes "deep insightful critique" of Tejas, faithfully printed by Vayu Aerospace
.
Can you believe it?
He hasn't seen 1984 ASR fr decades and "writes" expert opinion pieces on Tejas
There is a "gentleman " called Prof .Prodyut Das ( @prody 2445539 )
Who ofter writes abt ASR short fall , every 3 months.( Where else , in Vayu Aerospace onlee)

I can't understand how Flight international can "imply" that higher indigenization leads to "more control" of LRUs by foreign vendors,

He advised in 2012,

Yesterday it was Vayu .
Today it is flight global
Earlier it was Mk1 ( rescued by Parrikar with Mk1A Gambit)
Today it is Mk2
Game never ends.
My response to flight global article
which fool will "compare "imaginary paper planes" with yet to fly tejasMk2?

recently vayu Aerospace has published a "critique" ofTejas mk2 program by our "esteemed Professor Prodyut Das,
I had an interaction with him on twitter on #TejasMk1 thread,
It seems he has zero knowledge on Tejas mk1,
as you can read from the link below in our forum...
lot of people take the older CEMILAC remedy which said that "to achieve supersonic speeds at sea level (at that time tejas mk1 didnt go supersonic at sea level),
Tejas has to have a much SMOOTHER coke bottle shape area ruling curve , because the sudden increase in cross section (at around three...
Its simply amazing to see , so much misinformation being peddled in this threas abt, "IAF never wanting tejas , its just like gripen etc,,"
Without even knowing the theater of IAF operations,,,,,
Unlike Russia and USAF which ha to fly a few hundred Kms to meet the enemy or strike area ...
@Kunal Biswas

Beause this thread is now being used for tejas mk1 discussion, better do it on the dedicated thread
