Tejas LSP-3 will be first to have MMR ,Fine tuning of MMR and software bugs are been sorted out ,HAL wants radar to be fully working on all modes that's the reasons why its taking time ,but Ground trials on LSP-3 and LSP-4 have already been done only because of MMR their are waiting their first flight
I read some where that drdo working with elta group from Israel to resolving the problem in MMR is it finish.
What about desi AESA ????
 
CSIO-developed technology to be used in next generation fighter aircraft

The Head Up Display (HUD), developed by the Central Scientific Instruments Organisation (CSIO), Chandigarh, would soon be used in the next generation aircraft.

The CSIO recently completed the last phase of transfer of total 20 units of HUD to Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) which would be fabricated in the Light Combat Aircrafts (LCA) to be used by the Air Force. Not only the LCAs, the CSIO has also received order to develop 200 more items of equipment for the next generation aircrafts.

The CSIO is now in the process of development of the HUD systems for SU-30 MKI, Jaguar and MiG series aircraft. Dr Pawan Kapur, Director CSIO, said the organisation has recently received an order to develop 200 more HUD for the next generation aircrafts.

“The technology successfully developed and displayed to the Air Force would be subsequently used by them. It is a long-term programme which would be further implemented in the next generation aircrafts,”
said Kapur.

The HUD is supposed to be superior to similar systems in the international market.

According to Dr Kapur, “The CSIO equipment is noiseless and offers a better field of view. It is compact, reliable, non-reflective and designed for high-performance aircraft. HAL is undertaking the fabrication of HUD in the LCAs under close monitoring with CSIO. Various institutes and research bodies including HAL, Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA), Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) are involved in the process.”

After trials with LCA-TD2 aircrafts, the HUD technology has been successfully developed and integrated with these aircrafts and also the feasibility study of HUD for HJT aircrafts is completed. The HUD for the HJT, a follow-up project of the Tejas HUD, is more compact and lighter, with some more features incorporated into it.

The HUD is an opto-electronic device installed above the cockpit’s instruments with its screen at the pilot’s level. It provides information on the aircraft’s flight parameters like speed, direction, altitude, weapon-status, among others.
 
Any new abt new enigne(ej200 or ge414epe) for MK-II coze last time I read that winner should be arounce on march 2010.

From wiki:
The airframe of the naval variant of the Tejas will be modified with a nose droop to provide improved view during landing approach, and wing leading edge vortex controllers (LEVCON) to increase lift during approach.The LEVCONs are control surfaces that extend from the wing-root leading edge and thus afford better low-speed handling for the LCA, which would otherwise be slightly hampered due to the increased drag that results from its delta-wing design. As an added benefit, the LEVCONs will also increase controllability at high angles of attack (AoA).

Are these comparable to the movable LERX of Pak Fa?

All other actual delta wing fighters have canards, so if HAL develop these LEVCONs for N-LCA (which will be based on LCA MK2) anyway, why shouldn't IAF LCA MK2 get them?
 
India Plans To Induct LCA in 2011

NEW DELHI - India expects to induct the indigenous Light Combat Aircraft (LCA), already delayed by more than 15 years, into the Air Force by March 2011, said Indian Defence Minister A. K. Antony.

Antony provided the date in a written reply to the Indian Parliament March 8, adding that a high-level review is being conducted quarterly by the chief of the Air Staff and monthly by the deputy chief of the Air Staff.

The Air Force has already inducted 20 LCAs into the Initial Operational Clearance stage. The service has a requirement for more than 200 LCA-type aircraft.

LCA weapon installation is proceeding, with the integration of a multimode radar to the weapons suite nearing completion, Defence Ministry sources said.

"There was a delay in the development of LCA due to certain technical complexities and denial of critical technologies. $717.8 million was sanctioned for the development of LCA, which includes manufacture of eight numbers of limited series production aircraft. An additional $538.2 million has been approved by the government for LCA Phase-II program," Antony told Parliament.

Conceived in 1983, LCA is an advanced technology, single-seat, single-engine, supersonic, lightweight, all-weather, multirole, air superiority fighter designed for air-to-air, air-to-ground and air-to-sea combat roles.

A contract for the procurement of 20 Tejas Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) in Initial Operational Clearance (IOC) configuration was signed with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) on March 31, 2006. The total contract cost is Rs. 2701.70 crore. Delay in LCA production is primarily due to refinements carried out in the development phase. A total of Rs. 1712.11 crore has been paid to HAL till December 31, 2009 for the LCA Programme. There was a delay in the development of LCA due to certain technical complexities and denial of critical technologies. Rs. 3301.78 crore was sanctioned for the development of LCA, which includes manufacture of eight numbers of Limited Series Production aircraft. Additional Rs. 2475.78 crore has been approved by the Government for LCA Phase-II programme.

A high level review is being conducted by the Chief of Air Staff once in every quarter and by the Deputy Chief of Air Staff once in every month. LCA is likely to be inducted into the Indian Air Force (IAF) by March 2011.

This information was given by Defence Minister Shri AK Antony in a written reply to Shri Sivasami C and others in Lok Sabha today.

LiveFist - The Best of Indian Defence: Deficiencies Dog LCA Navy: Govt



The Indian government told Parliament today that "deficiencies have been detected in the airframe and other associated equipment of the [LCA Navy]. Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) is working out modalities with various organisations for rectifying these deficiencies by suitable modifications to the engine/airframe design."
