Your precious thunders wouldn't even survive long enough to engage the IAF fighters in air in any significant capacity.Most of their major air bases are within the range of our short range battlefield support missiles like Prithvi and Prahaar, which we have got in high hundreds.Our fighters wouldn't even have to cross the border to send the entire PAF fleet to oblivion.
Prahaar is inducted?
Tejas is just a part of Project LCA, something which many, if not all, members forget. On a personal note, LCA for me remains a Late Coming or Last Century Aircraft, but with the latest impetus given by the present GoI to not only prod, but definitely boot the DPSUs in India in "fire or fire" (perform or perish) terms, the HAL and ADA have been left scampering. The stakes are high, as contrary to another non-sensical post of yours hardly worth the effort rebutting, the Indian Private Industry is doing quite well in the field of Engineering and Manufacturing. Need I remind you that the Chinese Defence Industry received serious impetus from 'importing' technical know-how from former USSR? It is there to see in every weapon system you have been 'designing'.
Good that the present govt. has forced both DPSUs and military to converge faster. But private industry while being much more efficient, does not yet have the capability DPSUs have. But some steps had to be taken to shake up the system.
