    So do you subscribe to SANCHo's views that india should stick with making just subsystems for MIGs and SU-30s instead of embarking on a totally new plane designs like Tejas because indin designers are not up to it? When indian designers are upto the mark in missiles, nukes, BMDs, and nuclear...

    When was the most successful combat plane in the world faced an equal opponent with the same EW and power projection capability? by the same token the most successful combat plane in the world will also trump Grippen -Ng, RAFALE,TYPHOON all hands down perhaps, because the planes mentioned above...

    read MSD WOLLEN's article in ADA tejas website before putting out big sentences like' IAF didnot contribute a single penny for tejas development. The RCS of Tejas is supposed to be one of the lowest for 4.5th gen fighters.The RCS reduction methods and shaping techniques used on Tejas is same...

    I just want to draw them here for a debate that's all. None of the criticism on Tejas was based on it's specs.Most of it is based on lies and falsehoods. for example if you go to page no-480 plus in a circus like forum across the border, a member makes the case for tejas being used in...

    you must have read most of the nonsense spewed on tejas in various circus like forums(with pakistan on their name) .Before making all knowing sweeping comments on page -9 try to read from page-1 and raise your objections point by point so that we can have a debate not a brawl.

    That huge knowledge is just a bag full of gas when it comes to LCA tejas. I have seen it all in his post in that circus forum.Don't know what is the true intent behind such posts.

    The views expressed by senior moderators there are equally frighteningly stupid. Is this the level of debate in a big forum, how stupid these guys are. The budheads there don't even have that simple knowledge that the white sticker lookalike on the skin of LCA are there because various simple...

    it would be particularly interesting if one guy called sancho(Jr. THINK TANK!!!! from GERMANY?) who offers unsolicited advice to ADA and HAL that it is better to pursue the upgradation of Malasiyan and Indinesian SUKHOI's avionics than making indigenous fighters like TEJAS and AMCA...

    But according to extremely reliable(!!!) sources "the proposal will be (in foggy future of course, so that there is no need to give proof) turned down by IAF due to the NEED TO PRESERVE RESOURCE FOR 5TH GENS LIKE FGFA "

    Since India has a very strong defence relationship with Israel and now buying shiploads of weapons from US and Europe, there is really no bar on the technology level of asea RADAR on IAF's Tejas mk-2. When meteor is sold to india along with rafale, IAF can choose to customize any available best...

    you have not offended anyone here. You are just showing your lack of preparation before making a post. So now it is quite open for all to see that all your accusations against Tejas ( in Tejas mk-2 vs F-16) are made without any preparation.

    Statements like the one above is patently false and misleading.WHen ADA chief says LCA mk-2 will have interfaces to fit METEOR , statements like the one above are worth less.Tejas has 3 decades of service life ahead .When single engined grippen,and twin engined TYPHOON , RAFALE are going to use...

    Aim 9x was not born with F-16 block 60 either. And it was not meant only for F-16 blk 60 as well. Sukhoi -30 MKI is not inducted with BRAHMOS as well, Since the missile came along it is integerated with SUKHOI-30 MKI. tejas mk-2 has more than 3 decades worth of service life in IAF. And will...

    Tejas mk-2 is better than 80 percent of fleet of fighters , IAF can field against invading enemy fighters. This fact need not wait for FOC. It's huge wings resulting in more weight (thereby lesser TWR than viper , and lower wing loading than the viper ) is ther for a purpose. To give it...
