Development completed , I can't confirm it.Basically what's the status of dcmaws pod
@IndianHawk @SavageKing456 @porky_kicker @Karthi @BrigadierRPS others who have info

this is pure bs from our Decision takers.When we’re already using our transport fleet to the max as of now they absolutely don’t have any left to spare, and when squadron numbers are so low I don’t think they’ll be willing to part with a Mig 29UPG. They’re better of purchasing a 747 from Air India.

Boeing 747 will be much more easier to maintain than an IL76 as spares are more abundant and getting spares and maintaining former civil aircraft are easier.
Age of the aircraft won’t matter as it will fly for very few hours relative to a civil aircraft and price will be cheaper too as there’s very little demand for these old aircraft.
Project sanctioned (6 sensor system) by GOI in 2006-2007 under Mission Mode, where it was a collaboration between DARE and an Israeli company. The system was fully developed but not executed (was put in Technology Demonstrator category around 2009) for following reasons:
just a edit not only for amca and tedf but for tejas mk2 (dource ddr aero india interview)Project sanctioned (6 sensor system) by GOI in 2006-2007 under Mission Mode, where it was a collaboration between DARE and an Israeli company. The system was fully developed but not executed (was put in Technology Demonstrator category around 2009) for following reasons:
1. Overweight (was more than 4 kgs).
2. Had adverse impact on AOA of MKIs.
3. Unwillingness on part of Russians to certify the modifications.
AFAIK, ony a 4 sensor system was put on some MKIs (without certification).
I therefore believe that an advanced version of the system (360 DCMAWS/DAS) is still under development for TEDBF + AMCA.
@Bleh @mist_consecutive could you come in with your inputs.
Yep it's a 4 sensor system for Mk2. But for TEDBF + AMCA, I was referring to a 6 sensor 360 degree coverage like F35.just a edit not only for amca and tedf but for tejas mk2 (dource ddr aero india interview)
hmm btw i don't think 4 sensors would be 360 deg. , although just a thought but what if it dcmaws is converted into proper irst that is 3 ir bands would be gr8,is it that complicated technologically, pls shed some light ?Yep it's a 4 sensor system for Mk2.

I would be out of depth on this. @Karthi , could you come in on this one.hmm btw i don't think 4 sensors would be 360 deg. , although just a thought but what if it dcmaws is converted into proper irst that is 3 ir bands would be gr8,is it that complicated technologically, pls shed some light ?
For spherical coverage, 4 MAWS with hemispherical or at least 120 degree FoV in horizontal plane facing each quadrant - NE, NW, SE, SW can suffice, but again, placing them in horizontal plane is a challenge with strict RCS reduction. And the exhaust plume will create a cylindrical blindspot in longitudinal axishmm btw i don't think 4 sensors would be 360 deg. , although just a thought but what if it dcmaws is converted into proper irst that is 3 ir bands would be gr8,is it that complicated technologically, pls shed some light ?
No No No
bc, joker bana ke rakha hua hai ada,drdo ko
Just speculation nothing else.
Eh?
I am also wondering abt this, 5th gen fighter without 4th gen specsEh?
Now this is something new
