Something near to canopy, like in su30s & typhoon.

C'mon it is a light PDF. You want it to be a Rafale? IRST in the nose also means moving around a lot of stuff. It can be carried in a pod.

But that will be a good addition, a true 4.5 gen capabilities, moreover it will give one less argument by IAF for not inducting LCA mk2 at the time of induction.
Clubed with small size It will be good choice LCA carrying a irst as capable as typhoon's pirate & targeting enemy aircraft at beyond visual range without emitting its radar.

A noob question. How many missiles can Tejas carry? 6 or 7? I have not seen any pic where a missile has been loaded underneath the belly.

This might be helpfull

Well well ... Let see what we have here, PYTHONE BVR MISSILE range 20km.
6 Short range BVR

Who made this shit

Why whats wrong Python is classified as BVR ?

Why whats wrong Python is classified as BVR ?

A missile with the range above 35 - 40 km is classified as a BVR missile.

Israeli Classify Python 5 as a BVR. But you are right a missile excess of 37KM is considered BVR.

A doubt on LCA mk2,will it be having nose mounted irst?

Nose is too small to accomodate one i suppose

IAF did not mention IRST as a requirement in MK2 so there will be no IRST. Look for Group Captain Suneet Krishna's interview on Tarmak.

Who made this shit

Python-5 360 degree view Feature LOAL and LOBL Its True HOBS IIR ECCM with TVC Only Comparable to AIM-9X

True Range of Python-5 is Classified Same as Derby

Published Range of Derby is Above 63 KM But Maximum range is Still Classified

Python5 is a wvr missile,its Derby is classified as bvr missile.

But what's wrong in having a IRST in tejas's airframe? There are lot of irst systems are available in the international market.

A IRST mounted on LCA will be way better than pod based one,that hardpoint can be used for some other purposes like hanging jammers or ammunitions.

The Americans have a solution that fits Tejas :

just copy that in-house, guys!

Good day all, Tay.

True range of Python-5 is classified but its access of 32 km......Though yeah its primarily a wvr missile and one of the best of not best already.
