It is clearly mentioned as clean configuration in the most authentic manner.Still you are lying it that it can fly mach 1.2 with decent combat loads over the desert of Pakistan. Do you think people here are bloody fools.The first version of a massively underpowered tejas managed over 1350 km/h.See what is the potential if it gets a bigger powerfull engine in MLU. Now Lca which has a t/w ratio of 1.07 can manage this where is the drag man.It is only in your mind. This is what was managed by f-16 block 60 with a t/w of 1.095

And lca will have more insiataneous turn rate than F-16 for sure,like mirage 2000.Nowadays with high off bore sight missiles no aircraft can escape with high sustained turn rate because the chasing pilot need no tpoin his nose at the targets tail for all time.Meanwhile higher instataneous turn rate will help break lock from the chaser.with a couple of higher instataneos turn rate lca can shake off an f-16 from its tail
