Tejas will be as lethal as other fighter planes in the world.Here is video of Tejas firing AA-11 Archer missile.

TEJAS is definitely needed in IAF.
IAF is running behind.It is way below its sanctioned strength of 45 squadrons.In that the most troublesome part is Mig-21 and Mig-27 are getting obsolete and older day by day.We have to retire them as soon as possible.
Tejas is gap-filler and second league...

At that time Japs provided them modern weapons and ammunition.As Japanese were fighting against British,it was a good decision.
We have a pro-verb in my mother-tongue:
Our enemy's enemy can be our best mate.(as we share a same purpose.)
Give me a simple answer.
What would you have done if you were there?The situation is like this.
You were fighting for the British against Japanese and Indian National Army men which are to for the freedom of your country.You may die in this conflict.
Now you change your side and join Indian...
@Rafi:-
Do you exactly know what was Azad Hind Fauj?
Do you heard the name Subhash Chandra Bose?
Just google it.
They were the soldiers who fought for the independence of India during WW-2.Their sole aim was to free India from British rule by any means possible.
They were fighting against...
You comment like a fanboy.
Do you even know about the history?
Who got the American aid? and
Who got the Russian aid in Korean war?
You surely have taken down all the planes of all Air Forces in the world.What does that has to do with this thread?

I think this test was done already because I have seen a video of this.

I am not an aviation expert.But I think
TEJAS have AoA 20 degrees just 1 degree short of IAF expectations.This can be fixed along with the development of TEJAS MK-2. Also the problem of loss of altitude will be fixed.
IAF already ordered 40 TEJAS MK-1.

We do not compare ourselves to US.
We keep MKI because we have 2 nuclear weapons possessing neighbors.
In that if we want to keep our AF strong we have to use MKI.
It is one of the best fighter not only in ASIA but in the WORLD.

India posses very strong relationships with Russia.The time span which you are specifying is cold war period.During that period India had a policy of Non-Aligned movement.It was Pakistan who is a long time ally of USA.
So obviously we had to keep buying weapons from USSR.
I think you get...
I am completely agree with your article.
But instead of having this plant in nature gifted areas you can have in other areas like for example Gujarat where there is very less greenery.
USA will not sell F-15 to any country.I think only Israel,Saudi Arabia and Japan have these.
US sells it to their best allies.
Also F-15 is now getting older in generation.
Oh god No nuclear plant for electricity in my KONKAN.
My Ratnagiri district has variety of nature.
Nuclear power plant may harm that.
Believe me people in Konkan are really furious about the project.
I still have hopes that it will be shifted to another place.
