How many countries in world have produced their own jets ???
MK-1 might now be the best thing IAF will have but it will be better than Mig-21s. Thats fine by me.
you can discuss on points but please don't quote me just to "hate PSUs mission "
So am I supposed to blame ADA for the missed...
Well well this might be the first time I read your comment blaming HAL :woot:
BTW do you happen to know what has stopped/delayed the MK-1 production ???
I don't criticise all out nor do I hate HAL/DRDO.
My problem with them is they promise alot and deliver very few. We are a developing...
Even this news we are discussing is from idrw.org :D
Why only HAL ??? Read @sandy_3126 's post #59 though he never blame HAL for this but even he will agree there are shortcomings in HAL's approach too.
:rofl: if you don't know Bollywood has made him iconic figure. And all the people you quote want him dead :rofl:
If you think killing somebody inside Pakistan in today's condition of Pakistan is impossible think again. This govt is not likely to wave off any chance to kill him if one occurs...
Ok. No one said. But no one denied it either. Many sources available & this one is from forum.
Tejas MK-2 will fly in 2015
Correction : Mr. Saraswat did said it
Stealth version of India's Light Combat Aircraft [LCA] Tejas, Mk. 3 on the cards - AA Me, IN
I am not expert but standard testing...
They should and would start with PSU reforms and making them more efficient and accountable. Thats a hope but who knows.
i am sorry friend .........You need to learn reading between the lines.
You havent understood what I wrote
In short that was sarcasm :rofl:
Why not .......
Cause if LCA-MK-2 is not ready for induction in 2018 IAF have to have purchase costly Rafale or MKIs to keep the numbers. So if we are going to be late anyway why not use it for more value addition ????
I agree our own attempt to redesign or modify LCA will not be a hit story...
Yes It would have - 10 years ago !!!!!!!
Now its plain waste of resources. Whats the point in making 4.5 gen LAC MK-2 if IAF wont get it before 2020 ??? Assuming IAF sign for 100+ planes induction will continue till 2027/28 !!!!! Will it be relevent in that time frame ????
Its 2014 and first...
Was I arguing with you :woot: lol I wont do that with YOU !!!
There is difference between accepting and rejecting. So its more shameful to not media see than not to accept the dead who wont speak anything. Just rot !!!! :tup: You seem to have not understand the difference :rofl:
Look who...
Nice :hitwall:
Shifted first flight from early 2015 to early 2017.
So intense testing will need 2 years for HAL and 2 years for services .
Say 2 years for production of first Sqd.
In short we will be inducting MK-2 along with FGFA if everything go as planned !!!!!!!!
