There is no requirement for such numbers, also by the time we'll produce 83rd MK1A MK2 will be ready for production, if everything goes as planned. But I think they should go for 83+40=123 MK1A. 83 is not large number to support pvt industry. If MK1A is a good platform and satisfies IAF's ASQR...

What 53 ?? At least mention "53 improvements" so that I could understand. Here is my source : It says December 2012 :cool3: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Tejas-wont-become-fully-operational-before-2013/articleshow/10237574.cms

Could you plz share source the first bold part to prove your claim ? MK1 was supposed to get FOC in 2015 then 2016 then again in 2017 and now in 2018, lets see what happens. Though I think they'll get FOC by Jan-Feb 2019, at max. I blame the whole system for delay in LCA UPA alone couldn't do...

HAL/ADA/IAF don't understand the word "Start Immediately". MK1A was thought during 2015 and what has happened after 3 years is still not known to any one. 3 years, for just integrating AESA, EWS & reducing some weight from the airframe. And remember they have given year 2021-22 for production of...

By not ordering more MK1A IAF is not encouraging pvt industries to participate in LCA and develop a robust Aero industry. They must commit to MK1A, MK2 is distant future/dream for now. Must concentrate on current jet and think about foreign market. Nobody knows what will happen to MK2 by...

You have completely missed the LCA information bus. MK1 means both IOC & FOC; MK1A means beyond FOC i.e. AESA, EW suite, Refueling probe ,etc; IAF has agreed to buy 83 MK1A. MK2 is completely different bird. Here it is. Don't thank me.

MK1 exceeded expectations ?? When did it happened ? I mean MK1 may have set some standards but it has never "Exceeded" anyone's expectation especially IAF.o_O

Thanks to the Almighty!!! Now I want to hear one last sentence "Kaveri tested successfully on LCA", before my grand-kids see the day light.:balleballe:
