Its not built from SCRATCH.It's far from being a failed project, India has learn quite a lot from it, and because of that, it is far ahead of Pakistan in that regard.
Foreign components doesn't mean foreign fighter. A lot of modern fighters use foreign components; Is the Gripen a British fighter, JUST because it has a number of British components? Of course not.
It's easy to buy parts, it's hard to put them together, so give credit where credit is due.
Sweden designed gripen all by itself not by help of France like Tejas.
I already said its a good fighter but for now all that money went to nothing.
And this Ahead of Pakistan Behind Pakistan is utterly childish argument.
Defence is suppose to be DEFENCE of homeland in most economic and efficient manner. Not some childish sprint race.
Thing is we have a ready and capable replacement for Mirages and older F7s using our limited resources. While India is still in deep waters to replace its obsolete mig21 fleet. Tejas was suppose to do that but it failed to deliver.
Now go buy some expensive off the shelve fighter again and waste more precious national resources.
At least learn to criticize these stupid policies of Delhi. But Indians always revere whatever shit comes out of federation.
Anyways your country your defence. As you feel happy
