These RCS values can be very misleading. An aircraft is very complex. It has many reflecting elements and shapes. The RCS varies significantly depending upon the direction, range and power of the illuminating radar. even if i keep aside other factors like phase differences, polarization, and...

You need to understand few things. unlike rafale, Pak-FA is a heavy class bird, Specifications looks impressive, but it's thrust to weight ratio that matters and rafale holds excellent of it. Things looks simple on paper , but Modern air combat are complex in nature, EW is a important part...

Element of surprise is not there. both sides can detect incoming but No sane pilot fire's BVR salvos at Max range (70-90km) for various reasons (Not simple as you mentioned Lock & shoot). Modern Air battle are complex in nature, Self protection jamming plays important role, Jf17 Small size comes...

In simple words, Su30Mki use brute force, One or More ELTA El/M-8222, powerful radar, Loaded with BVR salvos is the answer. Thread is Not For Mki vs PAF, don't quote

With limited budget PAF replacing those aging fighters with BVR capable Jf17's, Generation ahead of it's predecessors. Chinese AeW&C linked with J17's can prove tricky in securing airspace. cost effective solution

yes, I wonder why, elections are near, CAG recently gave another blow to UPA, something fishy with all sudden media coverage and exaggerating the issue.

IAF inducted Mig29's in 80's and Mki's in 2000's, in terms of brute force Mki is more potent platform, that justify the reason of inducting them, (given roles are different) To add: There is no need of maintaining two different fleet of 5th gen fighters with same capabilities, IAF did not...

Two 5th generation platform with same capabilities, AMCA gives no operational advantage over FGFA, to replace aging fleet of Mig 27 and jags more advance platforms are in oven, also AURA UcaV project is underway to complement IAF strike package. IN still missing a dedicate 5th gen platform,

Russian's won't allow either Harpoon weight's around 700 Kg and air launched Brahmos comes at 2500Kg. Not feasible unless they can strip down brahmos weight by 40% or more without affecting it's striking capability.

Even if US allows, Brahmos might be too long for P-8I internal weapon bay and too heavy for the wing stations.

:bunny: Only gamer's will understand this :smokin:

Yanks logic :rolleyes:

Short coming from our side, we can't patrol those area 24/7, unlike LOC, LAC is tranquil. existing mechanism in place are enough to resolve these, i don't think if any Chinese media outlet is reporting on this issue. Indian side is exaggerating it.

they camped Inside Indian territory, such face offs are common, many times IA ended up other side of LAC, still Not even a single shot is fired when they see our patrol.

Exaggerating, no wonder it's Aman KaTamasha TOI

Mani, as long as border disputes are not resolved such intrusion's are normal and mostly resolved through existing mechanism in place. our anti Chinese media report's half story,

janon, Nobody denying the fact, Composites do reduce the RCS of a object but "far less" is not the correct word as most people claim it with internet links. in the case of LCA, RAM and design changes play major role "without" compromising it's aerodynamic performance. Thanks Thanks, forgot...

Not size but design plays major role in reducing emission. small size add's it's own limitation, for example, when inducted naval tejas maybe limited to fleet defence role and can hardly perform a effective offensive role due to it's limited number of hard point's and payload capacity.

use of composites eliminate stress concentration, brings down cost, shorter assemble time, ensure superior structural integrity and etc. but it's not a significant RCS reduction measure. goodday

No words :bounce: Kids nowdays :rofl:
