Dephens exfarts think that KF-21 which is a 4.5 Gen aircraft developed with the help of Lockheed Martin is waaayyyyy ahead of AMCA being a standalone project of Indian Aerospace Complex.
I won't blame them tbh,very few people(who are keen) in indian defense industry look deep into indian projects development and most of the development of AMCA is secret.
We have literally developed nearly every tech for AMCA except GaN radar(which would take some time for testing and evaluation after prototype is developed) and engines ofcourse.
The IWB,sensors,DSI intake with bumps are one of the very complex things which we've managed to develop besides RAM,the reason you don't hear much about it is because it's classified.
Rest is the matter of assembling and you would soon see the prototype as it is already under prototype manufacturing phase.
Besides the design of amca is more advanced than kfx.

We don't do PR and our weapon procurement policy is shit. These are the two main problem.
Regarding AMCA, my main concern is LPI radar, probably the second most important factor after the aircraft's stealth shaping with IWB. The lack of LPI radar why Su57 is not a true 5th gen. For KFX Koreans took the isreali help. I hope DRDO develop it before AMCA's fligh test.

You don't have to worry about stealth shaping,AMCA is the perfect blend of aerodynamics and stealth
Regarding radar It will take time,we have to wait for full fledged GaN radar completely tested for different tracking roles.
Afaik X Band GaN Aesa radar prototype might come next year or 2023
I agree though on your 1st line PR and weapons procurement.
Unless they're bringing major design changes I don't think AMCA getting delayed but will take time for induction.

Many cry babies whine about no PR about our Aviation stuff and what Turkroach aerospace is doing, you’re making fighter jets or a toy for others to play? SAAB made a promo for gripen, it felt like it was more of a sellable item than a war machine built in private.

KF-21 has a lot of PR done, they even showed prototype building and did a big ass show of its yet to fly prototype, man felt like some BTS concert of KF-21.

AMCA being a classified project speaks volumes about why they’re more interested in working on the jet than making 3D renders and animations as if selling a family car.

I’ve never seen Su-57 nor J-20 PR from its prototype building to it’s renders or animations the was turks and koreans are doing.

PR is necessary but only when you're exporting stuff to countries or celebrating your success,but not like the ruskies who make a video about perfumes and sell it in the name of checkmate fighter jet,it sounds desperation to me lol.

With AMCA, our Aerospace Sector will bloom (atleast that is what I am Expecting from it ) Indigenous Aerospace projects like AMCA,Tejas mk 2, TEDBF, Ghatak etc are a necessity for our Defence Industry .

AMCA ,TEDBF ,Tejas mk2 etc will help us a lot in our field of Aeronautics. Let's hope for the best and hope that some foolish government Action Doesn't hinder the Progress Of our Aeronautical projects.

Pray for the best. Good day and God bless our Nation. JAI HIND VANDEMATRAM.

This people should understand that KAI FX and AMCA will be fighters of Different Generation. India is pretty much developing all the essential Technologies for AMCA on its own.. Korean KAI FX on the other hand had technical Support from Lockheed Martin and maybe few other companies. It's design is very much borrowed from the F-22 Raptor. Also KAI FX is supposed to be a 4.5 generation Aircraft and AMCA will be a full fledged 5-5.5 generation Fighter Aircraft! So it justifies the Time line of both Programs.

Ask those experts ,the project timeline of kfx , their ass gonna require a pill to hide the embarassment
