Sri Lanka was a unique case where Indian Army was fighting Indian Intelligence Agencies. Indians were killing Indians. Of course, in Afghanistan Taliban will do it themselves.

He was an instructor for Iraqis along with another guy. Stop crying. It will be a while before Arab countries will stop needing foreign instructors.

Dimensions don't matter when you're comparing different families, as some are designed to be tiny but with same MTOW. Only compare Mk1A vs Mk2 dimensions, if you must. Similarly Blk2 vs Blk3 dimensions. As for empty weight, I'm pretty sure it's MTOW that decides the engine category. Perhaps...

TejasMk2 and GripenE are in a higher weight category compared to TejasMk1A and JF17Blk3.

F414 will not be installed on any similar category fighter.

There's rain all day in Keralam for the past few days. As of now, it's pretty nice. The prediction is that monsoon may hit one day early, on May31.

Good thing you put range in inverted commas. The only fighter in the world with range values that I trust is Tejas, because of the general lazy dead horse nature of Indian brochure makers. For this reason, in real life, sometimes we see this fighter even exceeding the values on paper. All other...

India doesn't have to agree to it as we have no rights on the IN20 variant. But I've found it weird why Hürjet designers wanted more thrust than the basic F404 in the first place. IN20 variant of F414 may make it to some of your TF-X though.

Highly unlikely that it's Derby-ER.

I noticed some terrorists seethe over this instead of feeling lucky there's at least one state with oxygen to spare. Sad really.

Wait until you see the list of things US and UK military has used the Mk designation for. It's not that widespread in Indian military, even in the Air Force. But you could indeed say India has used it for its three major conventional weapon platform successes: INSAS, ALH and the LCA, not...

This is false, in my opinion. The 'legend' about the Atlas mountains stems from the mention of an Atlantides group by Herodotus. This has extremely most likely nothing to do with Plato's Atlantis, a philosophical construct. As a simple check, Herodotus' Atlantides would exist say thousands of...

Atlantis extremely most likely didn't exist. Good idea though.

Sup.

Imagine the desperation in still clinging onto a development agency mockup meant to give a closer look, since they have no authority to give aerial display with the real thing. Oh wait, a development agency??? What's that!

Mk2. Official. The IAF paint scheme is very unfair to this fighter aesthetically, imo. It looks like a cute toy, although that goes with the "ease of flying" factor every pilot praises. Blacked out shots from certain angles gives it a completely different look.

AMCA is the fifth gen fighter. First batch is F414 powered and second larger batch is indigenous engine with foreign assistance, similar to how Turkey wants to proceed. Mk2 is enlarged LCA with canards, all of them powered by F414.

The list is not comprehensive. GE website lists F414-INS6 as in development for Tejas Mk2, but is omitted here. Perhaps because this is 100% confirmed and thus no campaign is required. But by this logic, Hurjet F404 is not confirmed and TF-X F110 is either 100% confirmed or 0% confirmed. I...
