I don't think LCA MK2 is any better than JF17.

8/year is a very productive rate. Indians take their tea time seriously. They take a long time to get it done right. You don't want to see the LCA falling off the sky like the Mig 21, do you?

JF-17 Block 2 will roll out sometime this year. Not to mention, it will add new features such as IRST, IFR Probe, Upgraded Avionics (4.5 Generation), New Weapons Package, more Composite use, and god knows hopefully New Engine (RD-93MA or WS-13). As far as LCA is concerned, i don't know much.

Here is a normal comparison---
LCA is develop to counter the latest threats like new f16, j10, mig29 & other new fighter a/c.
JF17 is develop to counter the older ones of IAF like mig21, mig23.
So any one can tell which is better.
Actually you are right. Ministry of defence said that if Pakistan(PAF) can go with 3rd gen crap(Jf-17), then why can't we(IAF) induct 4th gen LCA.
well as usual Pakistanies and Chinese makin fun of LCA & HAL capabilities well they are most welcome too cause in there over zeleous attempt to do so they are telling us how to do it in a more better way and the think tank in IAF , HAL & MOD is taking a good preview of things to come Thanks My Dear Pakitanies & chinese Friends for bieng so help ful
now to talk about what and how LCA Better than The gods gift To Aviation Industrie of the super Talented chinese and The divine PAF's JF17

Radar
LCA
While originally planned to be fitted on production aircraft, delays in the development of MMR prompted the DRDO to co-operate with Israel Aerospace Industries to integrate a Hybrid version of the EL/M-2032 radar for use with the Tejas. The EL/M-2032 radar used in LSP-3 has a detection and tracking range of up to 150 km in air-to-air mode, the air-to-ground mode generates high resolution radar imagery of locations at up to 150 km, and air-to-sea mode can detect and classify naval targets at ranges of up to 300 km.Another track System is an infrared search and track system (IRST)
The development of an AESA radar for the Tejas is expected to begin pending the selection of a developmental partner. The contenders for the contract are the European Consortium EADS and the Israel's Elta. The initial contract will see the co-development of 10 prototypes.

Of which The American arsenal is highli unlikeli as US has decliened(becuase of reverse ingenearing) Chinese american source code so it wont be possible to integrate Western armament on JF17
well this is just the tip while IAF And HAl have already integrated most with Israeli Help as of now
Si whos better (the one with latest wepons integrated or the one which will have god knows what )
lolzzzz
