Interesting observations by former ACM Bhadauria on the progress of the LCA Mk-2 & AMCA projects. As per him the ADA shot off its mouth on the expected T/L of the Mk-2 first flight.

AMCA ( Mk-1?) expected to get IOC in a decade from now. Wonder when will AMCA Mk-2 get the IOC & FOC then unless ADA gets the FOC in 2045 & calls it 5.5 Gen FA.

Why did the Airforce give green light to movies like this ?


It will at best become meme material and damage IAF's reputation.

I used to watch Dogfight TV series on the History channel some 15 years ago and even that had better graphics and better physics than this 2024 movie.
Ya'll Nibbiars It Didn't because it have no rights, even the consultancy were ex officers who's references were probably thrown in the dustbin. And here's the funfact the writer is a EX Kumaon Officer.

Some of the details that they could have gotten right didn't even require Air Force consultants; they were freely available on Google.

From the trailer, one could easily discern that the movie makers didn't understand even the basics of aerodynamics, physics, or how aircraft and missiles work.

I have a cousin working with one of the big studios, and he says these people don't even do basic research.


Worst of all, it appears that the VFX of the movie is even worse than that of the Pakistani movie 'Sher Dil.' The aircraft and aerial sequences in that movie looked more realistic than in this one

Ya'll Nibbiars Sher Dil had no realistic combat only some of the CGI were OK and good, Most filmmakers take liberty but in this case they are not concerned about realistic combat or even story line a Rip off Top Gun. There is still the Opertion Valentine, but that also suffer from the lower budget, only positivity about that could be it's accuracy than this one. If want to see any accurate portal of any air operations the see this Patlabor 2.

How Interception works in modern Air Force.


How Modern armies condact Urban operations.


Helicopter operations.

Because they are just money Laundering in the name of making movies. If you need to bring an Technically sound movie then you need to invest in a lot of money. Eg. Avatar series. Then to carry that momentum you need to have a good convincing story with top notch diagloues.

But here we have is Mullahwood and they will do money laundering for 50%, salaries for heroes, heroines and other biggies 30% and remaining 20% you will throw to VFX artist with deadline. End result you will a big dump of garbage.

Heck Minnal Murali with such a small budget had a good VFX. Even the Hanuman Movie with 12 crore budget does not have poor VFX.


Siddharth Anand lacks grey matter and his style is bascically a random beach song with Bikini clad heroine.
