so what is advance and what is Medium in that aircraft?

Advanced because it is a 5G aircraft .

Medium as in weight category .

Earlier it was a MCA like LCA. Airforce change some GSQR and design changed so as the name. MCA conceived as a 2 engine Thrust victor Fin less aircraft. Design under go various grass root changes vefore reaching to the present one. prior design was this.

Thank God they never went along with MCA ....... It was too ambiguous and would have resulted in another delayed project .

AMCA Version 3B-08

During the year 2014, the R&D divisions at NAL have significantly contributed towards the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft
programme of Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA). The R&D efforts led to the new configuration AMCA-3B-08 and a structurally efficient wing layout with four bending attachment brackets and two shear attachment brackets. For the AMCA
3B-08, structural design, analysis and size optimization was carried out to cater for all critical symmetric and un-symmetric load cases. Finite element models were built separately for each of the fuselage segments and then integrated to build a full fuselage finite element model.

What's the point of having this thread, when India has decided to stall work on AMCA.

there is no stalling work is already on

the development agencies are being proactive

they are regulary doing concept studies and designs

Well it's clearly not stalled is it? Work is still going on simply, for now, more attention is being given (and rightfully so) to get the LCA Mk.2 in service and then more attention will go on the AMCA.

Since the preliminary design of LCA MK2 is released, It is the time to focus on AMCA and LCA MK 3 with 6 ton weight and above 5.5 tons of weight carrying capability , stealth, Long range in excess of 3000 KM, Super cruise, AESA, High supersonic A TO A missile, precision strike weapons and bombs etc.

when do u expect LCA mk2 to enter service?

 

[nvKyleBrown]

They are still thinking Kaveri? That alone will kill the project. :-( Run the two separately at least, with a backup plan for the engine.

2019.

 

[Chakram Indian]

when do u expect LCA mk2 to enter service?

first prototypes by 2018-19 seems fair enough 1-2 years testing 2020 series production

whats your take
