Mig-17 does a min-radius turn in just above 20 sec.
Is 18-19 secs enough for tejas?
Also, coulc this video be doctored? (Watch from 1:00)
What do you want to prove with these videos. Counting the time from video LOL, why don't you explain that the pilot could simply explain how the speed of the plane too matters for the turning radius and the time taken for 360 degree turn.
Always fun to read these kind of uneducated excuses. If you at least have read the CAG report on LCA, to get yourself a basic idea about the fighter, it's issues and the programme, you wouldn't need to claim this kind of nonsense, but then again, facts don't matter, let's just blame IAF requirements for the failures of the designers.
Yeep just like I am always amused and smiling many of your posts of the legendary SANCHO.
In that case at same time, Rafale F4, Gripen E EFT tranche 3 will be entering service, what will we they, "outdated" birds. Get some check up IAF requirements made an air superiority fighter into a multirole, and if that wasn't enough, sanctions which triggered development of various subsystems in India and then looking for vendor to manufacture that thing. The truth is all that blabbering misses writing about that Tejas was meant for two reasons, one to replace mig21 and second to establish an Aero space industry.

LOL he he HA ha ha Poor Germans with there EFT and their tranche 3 and Casper.
So, french rafale, eurofighter typhoon, F15, F18, F16, MiG29, Su30 get outdated in 2025. Only F35, F22 and FGFA will be flying. Hence Tejas Mk2 will become obsolete.
This is some strange weed you are smoking
LOL he he good ones. Ok lets get serious, So called Fifth Gen plane -- sorry for the Fanboys the invisible stealth plane with black paint are meant for the speacialized mission and operation, a mission which justify the cost of the plane and the operation cost in the similar manner, you need MORTARs, rockets, Artillery, Pistal, guns even Dragger knife, even if you have supersonic Brahmos. The 4th Gen with remains relevant till 2060.
In short you need 5th gen Combat capabilty, which includes many components and the stealth platform, whether for the strike mission in the dangerous, highly defensive radar and SAM coverage area of operation to breach the defence layer and weaken the enermy air defence and to have air superiority.
Since GaganShakti IAF is beginning to really like and appreciate Tejas. This is pure bad news for the import lobby. Not only they lose the Indian market, a successful Tejas will simply crush the competition - Gripen in price and JF17 in performance.
Rest assure the LCA Tejas would be remembered and its story will Motivate the future generation engineers and scientists. Couple of idiots calling/writing technical snags as Faults, and yet to demostrate/certified capablitly as Shortfalls doesn't change the facts that how ADA and hundered plus institutions achieved a small achievements, which is a big slap for the countries and the peoples who thinks is impossible and making fun of the people of beggers, hungry peoples of snakes and flutes could actually do that. They could only see the snags, shortfalls that's why ADA took this hollistic approach with safety as their main concern and did not hundereds but thousands of tests of the Digital FCS software which which have proven solid, flawless, which will even make the dassault (the masters of Delta wing) to be proud and happy but would only counts the number of Pylons. Those idiots were unaware of the tests like opening and closing of the retractable landing gears in the HAL testing facility in the test beds for continuous 2 years to remove the slightest changes of the bugs in the whole operation profile conditions and why 2.5 instead of 1.5 safety margin was applied.
