Need a left to right video, or up to down which compares both side by side.

 

[GriffinsRule]

Decent displays by both aircraft. Only thing I noticed is Tejas seems easier to spot visually due to its delta wings and perhaps the darker grey scheme

 

[Zephyrus]

Thunder needs a new color scheme and smoke winders.

Getting spotted easily? May be good for an airshow but not for actual operations for which these are made.

 

[One_Nation]

Indian pilot appears reluctant for some reason.

Tejas doesn't have an engine any more don't know what they are selling

One of the best JF-17 performances I can recall. Neat and well-controlled.

An amazing performance by Tejas with vertical flights, something JF-17 would only wish to do in its dreams.

It is actually a large loop ended with a somersault, if you can see it from a different angle.

This might be an indication of poor agilbility as the loop is too large and the somersault is too slow.

The following is JF-17 doing a swift vertical loop with somersault.

Why would you say that, JF-17 soon after wheels leave the ground goes almost ballistic where as Tejas has to fly the full stretch of the runway to gather speed and power before it pulls up.... Also JF-17 concludes its display with vertical rolls.

Tejas has no engine what's they marketing?

The truck on which it is carried.

It never had an engine. It was always carried on a truck trailer.
