Rather than air refueling pod what is the main structural differences for FOC version of mk1 , the normal gap between two set aircrafts are one month,but in AI19 why hal staff said foc version in October?

For print it's basic guess work, every time they post about some hallucinations , gov have to come frwd to Alle correction like they said we killed Dhanush for m777 now we have both so I can't take them as serious, also I think it's not 10 it's 12 with airforce rest 3 undergoing software updates, becoz rather than lsp aircraft sp aircraft also in hal hanger for frequent software updation such as new multi mode operation mod etc, it will be easy once they test it in Operational aircarft than lsp

These leftists Rags are the worst liars and shameless thugs, need to close them down. This is what happens when low caliber JNU leftists are employed as journos to do propaganda and spread misinformation for China and the west !

There is usually a handing off ceremony for newly inducted aircraft is there not?

Basically after first flight form hal test pilot the sp Tejas in hangers for least 1 week then IAF validation pilot come and take it for a 45 min spin and check all parameters of any issues they see then send report back to hal and hal fix and make the flight again this is the routine I know abt, and abt induction ceremony to 45th squ I think it happen only for first 3 lca rest of them just got normal welcome from firefight machines, when they land on Coimbatore station nothing fancy

Not that The Print is a more reliable source than Gafoora;
"Till date, out of 16 IOC fighter aircraft, 10 fighters have been delivered by HAL and are operational with IAF’s 45 Squadron."

We do know that IOC aircraft 16th have officially rolled out. So what are the other 6 doing? Test-beds?

 

[Rahul Singh]

As beautiful as the pic is. its not from Lima contingent. You are not going into a trade show with weapons - this is probably from Leh testing. Moreover there are landing pics of Tejas with noting but DTs.

I know that it is not from LIMA contingent.

And I never said it was in first place. Tejas won't carry A2G ordinance on a ferry flight to an air show.
.
What I said is the shooting of Tejas pics and videos in A2A for making marketing videos for LIMA for obvious reasons.

12 have been delivered to 45 so far. 2 are under various stages of acceptance and 2 are awaiting customer sorties.
