Build twin-engine LCA – Rafale is short term solution

There is a Aircraft which has thrust to weight ratio of 0.95 while LCA TWR is 1.07, has engine which produces 400 KG lesser thrust than that of LCA and is result of JV while LCA is designed by India.

I am curious to know which aircraft is this?

Please dont even start comparing LCA to its " rivals "

Ignore such posts ; they are a TRAP

WE KNOW that LCA is superior to its rivals ; that is all that matters

all over the world the morons in air force decide what they need and want ,and engineers than build a prototype, they than choose it.
it doesn't work like the engineers build something and tell the morons to fly it!
i think the problem is that HAL cannot deliver what IAF wants

You are misinformed on both bolded parts -

- No Airforce designs an aircraft, they are not aircraft designers. IAF is foolish to interfere in technical/science decisions. Its not their domain. Read my post again before jumping in. A pokeman player can win world-championship, but he is not game-engine developer. Users are not scientists/developers. Mig and Sukhoi has delivered faster because morons of IAF are not part of MiG design teams. Look at delays in FGFA. FGFA is delayed because morons in IAF are confused on how to design it, they are unable to make up their minds. This is why i said - the moment you invite pilots into aircraft design, you f8*ck up whole thing. Just like MiG/Sukhoi, let DRDO/ADA decide the design. Don't interfere in their job, it only delays everything by a decade. LCA's testing regime was originally 6 years(till 2008), but IAF added extra tests(because they had doubts on design). This delayed project by 6 more years.

- HAL is not part of LCA/ADA/DRDO design/development. I think you got confused by what HAL barks in public about LCA project. Those are just weapon dalaal's defaming LCA, to push foreign license-manufacture contracts. Don't take HAL seriously. LCH design is bigtime fu*cked up, Light combat helicopter concept was already outdated in 2010 itself. You will hear this after 8 years. Write this down.

IAF has no technological qualification to take technology roadmap decisions. This job should be outsourced to, retired DRDO/ADA guys. They can advise incompetent IAF better, on how technology is going to evolve in next 30 years, because they have worked in that domain. In USAF, pilots don't get appointment at senior research positions. USAF have appointed full-time, senior scientists for it, not junkie, half-educated tomboys. Even school dropout can be a pilot, but he can't be plane designer. Fighting and making weapons, are totally two separate domains of expertise. Remember the pokeman(its a computer game) example, i gave above.

The same aircraft that has been in full combat service since years, was started years after the LCA and ended up flying way before it. Same aircraft that is rightfully called a light weight fighter, the same fighter it's main customer is committed to induct and develop, rather than being shoved down the throat. The same aircraft that has never been the butt of the jokes.

That Aircraft is JV while LCA is desgined by India.

I have also heard that Aircraft's afterburner has problem so it is forced to not use it for long time.

BTW you did not offer any explanation for low TWR and other points I rasied?

so the problem is incompetent IAF, but never the less it is the job of IAF to decide what they want not HAL.
