LCA TEJAS MK1 & MK1A: News and Discussion

[Spitfire9]

It says in the video that the 18 NLCA would be FOC aircraft to be used as trainers for pilots to then graduate to MiG-29.

I am a bit surprised that 18 Tejas would be bought for use (according to IDU video) as trainers. Surely they would be used as fighters as well. Why would you make them part of a carrier's contingent otherwise?

I also wonder when they would be built and where.

Ok, so they're may be further rollouts of more Tejas in August... but nothing on when delivery to IAF may resume.

3-4 incomplete jets seen in the background (I bdlieve SPs 28,29,30)...
...for now, just enjoy the build quality.

Is the HAL Tejas a success or a failure?

David Y's answer: For India, yes it can be considered as a half successful project. However, compared to many other airplanes, LCA is failure. Some brief explanation: 1. took too long to develop, (started from 1980s and it is still not completely developed), by the time when it enters the mili...

I very much agree with this person’s rating of LCA, which is also my opinion on LCA

This actually explains why this chowmien don't know much of already anything he's talking about... He must read stuff like this. The guy says LCA is limited to 6g & that thing about aspect ratio (it's super hilarious really, by that logic F-18 should outperform Mig-29 at energy fighting while the opposite it true, LERX will allow greater slow speed maneuverability but bleeds speed).

This agreeably explains why this chowmien don't know much of already anything he's taking about... He must read stuff like this. The guy says LCA is limited to 6g & that thing about aspect ratio (it's super hilarious really, by that logic F-18 should outperform F-22 at high speed).

I think what he said is right, especially the discussion about the aerodynamic shape of LCA

You're not qualified to have any opinion.

He’s fighting with me on chinese economy thread because I posted a news article that Xitler Jinpig has wiped out 560 bn USD from chinese stock market in a week, and he calls this Cultural Revolution 2.0 as Market Reforms 2.0, such is the level of desperation of overtime Chinese Wumaos.

The delta wing itself should have good high-speed performance, but the fixed intake port increases the shock resistance, and what he said should be the aspect ratio.

But it’s okay, after all, India is number one

Not that simple. It depends on

• if the wing is cranked or not,
• the airfoil shape,
• the L/D ratio (ie area-ruling,
• the leading-edge sweep angle....

Listen man, you sound like you are clueless noob, so take this advice. Never take seriously anyone who over simplifies something like aerodynamics.

 

[lixun]

Problem is that when this was written then LCA was still in Testing phase, the production and the mainsaty MK1A and MK2 are far more advanced than vanilla LCA, got it?

Did you tell me that there has been any change in the aerodynamic shape of LCA from 1990 to now?

 

[Bleh]

A person who thinks that medium fighters can carry more than heavy fighters should know nothing about aircraft.

Again. Oversimplification!

J-15 will outcarry Mig-29 on full runway... On a skyjump carrier you did not get a full runway. Matter of fact is that Russians themselves are abandoning Su-33 in favour of Mig-29k

Did you tell me that there has been any change in the aerodynamic shape of LCA from 1990 to now?

Flight control software. That's how clean sheet aircraft development is done... IOC was 6g capable, 21° AoA, 16°/sec STR. FOC has been tested to 8.5g, 26°AoA, 17.5°/sec STR.

You have to know these stuff b4 you come to make comments & be taken seriously. These guys are just having fun with you.

SP26

does that make it the first or 10th?

(The ‘old’ SP26 is now meant to be SP17)

Where SP26 is written??? It will be 10th FOC by new naming standards.

Usage of VPN is illegal and punishable in China.

U cn buy acces for fb twitter etc. There r packages. Indians who travel dere use all the time.

17 became 21 dude... 26 is the 6th jet.
