India’s 5th Gen AMCA Project all set to go Offical

After carrying out years of Internal In-house research to develop technology required for India’s first Stealth Fighter aircraft Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA), DRDO is all set to brief Defence minister Manohar Parrikar about the project and seek first official grant of $4 Billion from the government to start first phase of development which will involve development of Two Technological Demonstrator (TD) aircrafts and later Prototypes .
According to report prepared by Prominent Journalist “Ajai Shukla ” Dr S Christopher DRDO Chief will be first briefed about the Project and similar briefing has also been sought by Defence minister Manohar Parrikar before AMCA Project gets Green Singal from Government and Offical funding .
Idrw.org in its previous reports had informed its readers that ADE will start building first Technological Demonstrator (TD) aircraft from late 2019 which will be ready for first flight in 2021 and will enter production post-2025. DRDO hopes from development stage to Testing Stage and then to Production stage, AMCA Project will mature in next 15 years.
Design and aerodynamic layout of AMCA have already been frozen and recent wind tunnel testing carried out at the Calspan Wind Tunnel in the United States of America have given its developers enough confidence in their work to start working on actual aircraft.
AMCA will be India’s first Stealth aircraft developed in India. Air Staff Requirement (ASR) issued by Indian air force (IAF) in 2010 had asked for aircrafts weight should not exceed 25 tonnes which make it a medium category aircraft. ASR also demanded aircraft be powered by Two engines and according to ADE AMCA will require Two 110kN thrust class engine to meet its power requirements.
AMCA will be equipped with an AESA Radar, which also have Next generation avionics in Cockpit. AMCA will also come with latest integrated condition monitoring systems covering important systems such as avionics, structural health, air conditioning, and pressure regulation, networked data fusion and engines will also get thrust vectoring for super manoeuvrability.
AMCA will be designed with a very small radar cross-section and is expected to feature serpentine shaped air-intakes, internal weapons and the use of composites and other materials to make it par with other Stealth aircrafts developed by other Countries .
ADE will first develop Two Technological Demonstrator (TD) aircrafts and 3 Prototypes which will be developed in Modular Construction method.
