You should check your facts first before backing them radar range is 45 km , this is the reason for radome cone change to increase it to 80 km.
Even i was saying CR with internal fuel and it is pretty low.
(Compare it with Jf 17 / F-Ck-1 / KAI T-50 / F-2A )

33 yrs and you have this ?
Time to rethink.

80 Km for 2 m^2 target is pretty good as compared to others in its class.
CR is 500 km

You should update the cone issue is sorted out.and do not teach about mk33 performance. It is highly thrusty. Regarding range, it depends upon weapon package , range, and altitude. Where you find those fighters you mentioned have got more range? In this specific altit ude awith payload

Defence minister Manohar Parikar hinted here that LCA mk1 number can shoot upto 100 and speeding up the mk2.

Indian Rethink Is Leading To a Smaller Rafale Deal

http://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/ ... afale-deal

Quote:
Parrikar said that the Rafale acquisition should have been a “government-to-government” deal from the outset. He added that a new defense procurement policy would be announced soon, and would be less complicated than the current policy, with its “Make in India” provisions. Mehta said the new Rafale deal “has given the IAF much-needed breathing space while keeping other options open. It is likely to free up funds that can partly be used for scaling up production of the Tejas Light Combat Aircraft [LCA] and the faster induction of the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft [FGFA] in collaboration with Russia.” AIN has learned that an additional 30 Sukhoi Su-30MKIs will be ordered in the meanwhile.

as you can see in the video above your post the number will eventually reach to 100 for mk1

The defence minister was clear that there will be a push to increase the numbers of LCA MK-1 to 100 if required.

Devendra Fadnavis in talks with Swedish defence company Saab Group to set up unit in state
SOURCE: ECONOMIC TIMES

At a time when Prime Minister Narendra Modi is busy drumming up support for his high-decibel Make In India campaign, Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis has quietly initiated talks with Swedish defence company Saab Group to set up a production unit in his state.Just back from the Hanover Fair 2015, where he had gone to promote Maharashtra, Fadnavis spoke exclusively to ET on Thursday, saying that his government has begun a dialogue with Sweden’s Saab Group to team up with Pune-based Bharat Forge for setting up a defence production unit in Maharashtra soon.

Fadnavis said Saab expressed interest in setting up a manufacturing base in Maharashtra and even presented a business plan with transfer of technology and a proposal to collaborate with Indian companies if land and power are assured to them. Saab Group is a Swedish aerospace and defence company specialising in radar and avionics. Fadnavis held a series of meetings with Swedish defence, aerospace, radar and avionics experts, and showcased the obvious advantages of Maharashtra — Air Force maintenance command in Nagpur and Indian aeronautic manufacturing unit in Nashik. The Maharashtra CM said his aim was to market Maharashtra as the largest base for the German engineering industry.

read the article in current thread how pathetic range and cr in different modes are.

well sir tejas is worlds most compact and light fighter in its class today but its no slouch either as it uses composites in its air frame on a very big scale thus reducing its wieght & RCS considrabelli

whats more MK2 is just round the corner owr biggest was the corrupt UPA 1&2 goverments which slept on this projectas maney from kickbacks were there first priorty not self reliance even LCA was speeded up in NDA rule and sow as the MKI concived and deal for vikrmaditya & eventhe AJT deal both of which were messed up by corrupt UPA to get there share in the deals

but now since a upright ,patriot & shrewd buisness person like modi ji isin hot seat + an IITan Defence Minister M Parikker who has already shown how to get things on a shoestring budget under very short notice period im sure things willwork owt pretty well and pretty soon at pace which none thought possible

and the biggest thing with LCA is it though has a smallrange but its a point defnce fighter which will always remain shadows of big boys of IAF ( M26 , M2K , MKI & Rafale) but can carry a very good load of wepons almost all of which are integrated and soon mass production will come into full steam

and range of EL/M-2032 is not 80 Km (killometere=1000m) but 80 NM (nautikal miles 1852m) so its 148.16 while it can track sea targets for 160NM


so LCA though alittle late still is good enof for PAF little help from upgraded Jags M 29 & M2K while MKI-Rafale combo will gaurd northen frontire so we are not worried as both FGFA & hopefulli AMCA will arrive just in time

 

[Manindra]

Apart from drag LCA has following major problems.
1) Poor Range.
2) Pathetic Radar.
3) Puny payload cap.

Address these before it can be of any use to any airforce in the world.

1) I don't think a point defence fighter range should be 3000 KM
2) Do you check how pathetic F-16 radar (Bar block 60/62) is ?
4) Again 3500 to 4000 & in MKII 5000 tonne is good enough for point defence fighter.

1) I don't think a point defence fighter range should be 3000 KM
2) Do you check how pathetic F-16 radar (Bar block 60/62) is ?

And i thought you intended this to be multirole fighter suitable to play role of both mig 21/27 or even jaguar.

It would give Jaguar or MIG 27 a run for money in even in current form (IOC -2 ) but its war time requirement but its need to supersede MIG-21 in role for Air Patrol but its current composite nose reduce radar signal which would be replace by quartz made cone.
