Will the MK2 be a twin engine or get a bigger engine to operate a 17.5 ton bird??????????:shock::confused1:

I would like ADA to add all stealth features that is physically possible on LCA MK2 making it a 4.5+++ generation fighter.

Bhai Tu Rafale bhej, tejas hum deklege ( Bro you sell Rafale we will take care of Tejas)

When we say 5th Gen fighter it means stealth as one of the characteristics with other attributes like very low electronic footprint, high situational awareness for the pilot, longer loiter time over the targeted area, better man-machine interface, sensor fusion and datalink capabilities over the...

Its better IAF invests in the MK3 project and abandon MK2, by the time IAF receives MK1A variant in full the Chinese will have 5th gen fighters placed near to our borders! Let Navy have the MK2 its suits their requirement. My suggestion is let a young team develop the MK3 variant on lines with...

I like the idea, we have a thread open in this forum to discuss LCA Tejas MK 3. I am believe this should be the next prospective evolution of Tejas.

Yeah with more composites and planned weight reduction by Hal for Mk 1P the stealth version can be powered by the current Kaveri engine. Wr need to give this platform to the private sector to invest in and make IAF committed to order in bulk like 400 plus, just the taught will bring shivers in...

How about a LCA with 5th generation features developed for AMCA with a home grown engine may be advanced version of Kaveri K9, this all in mk3 or 4 keep improving and make it a more potent platform. Wishful thinking ... But possible, kindly debate on future advancements..

What about the trolls reasoning that Kaveri is a leaky engine? Any substance in their mongering.. Can you provide an comparison with the Ge404 and K9, where our engine excels and where it is required to improve. And what is achievable? Is there any other engine under development for replacement...

@ersakthivel, your the best to spank the arses of the trolled knowledgeable folks. It would be helpful if you can further elaborate the relevance of Kaveri GTRE engine in a reduced tonnage of Tejas MK 1, its advantages and disadvantages. My bet is on the desi engine to power this Indian bird.And...

@Yumdoot , with the proposed 15% weight reduction can Kaveri in its current achieved thrust be used to power Tejas Mk1. The dimensions of both ge404 and Kaveri are very similar. Would the Kaveri power plant meet the requirements of the inboard electronics?

Experts, now that HAL is all set to reduce the weight of Tejas MK1 by almost a ton why cannot we integrate the Kaveri GTRE engine with 75kn. It will save us a lot of forex instead of buying GE engines. We can later improve its performance or add 3D TVC in later MK's.
