There is reason why they are called Imported Airforce.
Lobbying and corruption runs till highest chain of command.

Stick to DDR and Tarmak Talking by Dr. Ananthakrishnan Mulridharan.Could you suggest some YouTube channels in which ADA/HAL etc officials give information/Updates about Aeronautical projects like AMCA, Tejas MK-2, TEDBF etc?
Because till date I have never ever watched an interview as such.
Uttam Mk2, most likely with GaN T/R modules which is in an advanced stage.Which radar is Tejas MK-2 planned to have? UTTAM or Israeli Elta series of Radar?
On a minor note : I cannot wait for MK-2 to make its 1st flight, I want to see Tejas MK-2 fly in formation with Netra MK-2/3, AMCA, Ghatak UAV, TEDBF. Ofcourse that day is probably 7-8 years from now. I would love to see a sight like this:-

All Indian jets after 21st LCA Mk1. A will field either Uttam AESA Radar or its derative be it AMCA, Tejas Mk. 2, TEFBF.Which radar is Tejas MK-2 planned to have? UTTAM or Israeli Elta series of Radar?
UTTAM MK-2? What happened to UTTAM MK-1? Have we straight away jumped to MK-2?![]()
Astra Microwave delivers an improved variant of Uttam AESA radar to DRDO for Tejas Mk2/MWF

Uttam MK1 was for MK1A. Upgraded Uttam was for MK2Tejas MK-2 is just an LCA Tejas MK-1/MK-1A airframe which has been slightly scaled up with the inclusion of Canards.
Canards improve flight control characteristics, Contribute to lift and make the aircraft more Manouverable. Basically our MWF Program will result in a "Desi Gripen".

Uttam Mk. 1 is under flight trails. We are validating all aspects for the radar.UTTAM MK-2? What happened to UTTAM MK-1? Have we straight away jumped to MK-2?
Uttam MK1 was for MK1A. Upgraded Uttam was for MK2
So I guess we can all put it this way :-Uttam Mk. 1 is under flight trails. We are validating all aspects for the radar.
Real vs paper.Because they're being hypocrites. The same IAF that is ok with having a Gripen E/F as an MRFA contender (and even has sections of it rooting for the Gripen E/F) is absolutely quiet when an Indian Tejas Mk2 MWF that has almost the same weight/payload/range/engine/avionics as the Gripen E/F is being developed.
So Gripen E/F can be MRFA but Tejas Mk2 MWF cannot? That's pure and utter BS.
So are you not in support of IAF selecting Tejas MK-2 MWF over JAS-39 Gripen?Real vs paper.
But that is the truthSo are you not in support of IAF selecting Tejas MK-2 MWF over JAS-39 Gripen?
But, Tejas mk2 will be way cheaper and could be upgraded and updated without relyin on a foreign vendor!But that is the truth
It's not about fake. News is true but there is a secrecy clause which is breached by Astra microwave. Only DRDO lab have right to disclose the news on appropriate time.Is IRDW the faker ?
IAF should buy 100 plus Rafale f4 with indian assembly line in next 7 to 8 yrs. This is the time we need to mature MK 2 and test actual AMCA.So are you not in support of IAF selecting Tejas MK-2 MWF over JAS-39 Gripen?
Paisa do vaiIAF should buy 100 plus Rafale f4 with indian assembly line in next 7 to 8 yrs. This is the time we need to mature MK 2 and test actual AMCA.
We need at least 100 mk2 like aircraft soon, Rafale is the only way. I am hopeful that GOI will get them plus engine deal as well to be 100% independent. That will be the day IAF only ask ADA, HAL not foreign maal.
Paisa bahot hai GOI ke pass. After Ukraine war MoD is hyper active. We will see results soon, and many many great news for other forces. If we can manage this decade, 2031 india will be power tonrecon with, militarily.Paisa do vai
100+ rafales will be greater than 25bln minimum..with the amount of upgrades,procurements IAF already needs to do i do not see funds for that many jets.Paisa bahot hai GOI ke pass. After Ukraine war MoD is hyper active. We will see results soon, and many many great news for other forces. If we can manage this decade, 2031 india will be power tonrecon with, militarily.
I have no argument with that but Real vs Paper is IAF's thinking.But, Tejas mk2 will be way cheaper and could be upgraded and updated without relyin on a foreign vendor!
thus as the platform matures it could outperform gripen plus it will create a much needed ecosystem for defence aviation!
money saved could be invested in other defence projects and R&D of new technologies!
