How can a plane become a mature without ever being deployed in service?
The plane has become mature for opertional service, this is what he meant. Don't go on the words but try understand the essence of it and I am not quoting his speech word to word.
hmmmm this should put to rest the hype created by Indians about "latest star war technologies" used in Tejas, and this I think is the key reason for Tejas not being inducted in the service, and the chances are it never will be. In my opinion it would become a sort of test bed for indian aviation tech research and maybe some limited training, and not to forget fly past on republic day parades.
No one has ever claimed any type of star war technologies on Tejas. And who told you it will never get inducted. In the discussion it is very clearly mentioned that why IAF didn't inducted Tejas till now. He clearly mention IAF keep changing his requirement so that when Tejas get ready for inducting, it still remains a good & competent fighter matching the present gen fighters. Thats why you herad about, higher payload of close to 4 ton on LCA mk1 and 5 ton on mk2 when the initial requirement was of 2.5 ton payload. Similarly hybrid MMR radar and AESA radar. Higher powered engine, AoA, HMS, HOTAS, lock on by looking,low RCS, higher use of composites ,etc.
