How Did India Manage to Build an Advanced Fighter Jet Like the Tejas?

We say same about you as you have no knowledge of what we speak and you give haha reacts just because you feel its funny. Except for spamming no one puts facts, just a few posters gang up and spam trollposts, chinese dudes even brought space,


Touch wood we are not on the same wave lengths as Bollywood life existence will only suits Indians. Read up on the Tejas history and JF 17 history, cost and technology through unbiased coloured glasses and then you draw your own conclusions. Samosa aircraft all of a sudden became technology marvel while JF 17 is just a paint job and am sure 40% of JF 17 are still grounded are all in your dreams. Every country in the world have helped you to put together this samosa ingredients but still claiming its an Indian marvel is just a bit far fetched claims. So go on educate yourself before pointing fingers.

Yes, in a thousand year time later. :rofl:
The very much time it took to you to even reach mars :) .
Fact is that you’re 8 years late, we reached Mars orbit in 2013, you took 8 years in 2021 to reach mars orbit. Lol.

Sorry, long March 5 and long March 7!are launch from wenchamg hainan. You can delude yourself as much but can't change the fact. Indian rocket are pathetic compare to mighty China long March 5. :enjoy:

Everything of China is mighty. Their 5 tom geo payload rocket is mighty but GSLV which carries 4.2 tons is not mighty. Their J 20 which can not maneuver like even a third generation plane because of week engine and poor aerodynamics is also mighty. From dictator Xi to @Beast , everything belongs to China is mighty including Chinese virus.

Your mirages are samosa too, lol. And we know 60% tejas is grounded as well.

Tejas Mk1 is good, Mk1A is top in its class, Mk2 shall be absolutely top class. Just a single engine plane will carry 6.5 ton payload, 9g maneuvers, top class AESA, top class bvr and wvr, top class EW and lot more. Only Gripen E can come close in capabilities in its class. It can match 2 engine planes capabity at half of operating cost.


No I don't. I want a tution from you.
Top in its class??
According to which experts sonny

Always will be shall be
isn't it with you chumps deary
But when time comes will be next time is your mantra ;)
Didn’t I say, “but first let the egg hatch?” Or you need to clean your eyes as well?

It's always will be shall be with you chumps that's what I said and that what you replied sonny :)
We are not like you guys who will out threads related to Azm discussing the same will be shall be, do we say anything? Its normal as whatever info you get, you share accordingly and has nothing wrong. But then you’re just filling pages here with troll posts.

How Did India Manage to Build an Advanced Fighter Jet Like the Tejas?
When it comes to sensitive industries like defense, democracy and the rule of law do matter.

India’s biennial military aircraft show, Aero India, went off without a hitch in early February in the southern Indian tech capital of Bengaluru. Despite the travails of pandemic-era traveling, the United States sent a deputy undersecretary, a Navy admiral, and three Air Force generals. It also sent a nuclear-capable B-1B bomber. But the real star of the show was what escorted the U.S. aircraft in the sky: an Indian-built Tejas fighter jet. With a name that means “radiant” in the ancient Sanskrit language, the Tejas is the first supersonic multirole fighter aircraft designed and built entirely in India.
How has a relatively poor country like India that is more famous for call centers than for precision manufacturing managed such a dramatic technological leap? In a word: cooperation. India is keen to build defense-industry partnerships with more advanced countries, and—even more importantly—advanced countries are keen to partner with India. Not only does it have one of the world’s largest military procurement budgets and a large pool of talented engineers, but India also has a strong tradition of rule of law that protects intellectual property and ensures the enforceability of contracts—in stark contrast to China, which is fast losing access to many advanced Western technologies. That makes India a better partner for international technology companies that it, for now, still depends on.
With the Tejas, India joins an elite group of countries that have demonstrated the capacity to develop and manufacture so-called fourth-generation fighters: combat aircraft characterized by electronic fly-by-wire control systems, onboard situation awareness displays, and over-the-horizon strike capabilities. The United States led the way in the late 1970s with the dual-engine F-15 and single-engine F-16, while China began producing similar fourth-generation fighters only in the early 2000s. With the F-22 and F-35, the United States has since begun to produce fifth-generation fighters—adding stealth capacity among other advances—while other countries, including India, are eager to catch up.
The Tejas is a flagship project of the government’s Atmanirbhar Bharat or Self-Reliant India program. So far, India’s defense industry isn’t nearly as self-reliant as the government might like it to be, and the Tejas—assembled by India’s state-owned Hindustan Aeronautics in Bengaluru—is a good example: The government estimates that the fighter is just 60 percent Indian by value, though that figure is expected to rise over time. The biggest-ticket foreign components are the plane’s General Electric F404 jet engine and Israel Aerospace Industries’ radar and electronic warfare systems. Take away these key components, and all you have is an empty airframe.
For India, that’s not a problem: As a democratic country that honors contracts and respects intellectual property law, it is able to buy advanced technology that it cannot produce itself. That gives the country a major advantage over its regional rivals, China and Pakistan, which simply are not trusted by their suppliers. China’s jet fighter development programs have been repeatedly held back by Russia’s unwillingness to supply high-performance engines for fear of Chinese reverse-engineering. And key components of Pakistan’s locally manufactured JF-17 are entirely sourced from China, as is the design.
