Somehow the Indian started to spread this on social media, 300+ J-15, lol wut?

300+ 🤣

This is known as Wishful thinking... On the Indian part obviously 🤣. I mean when you are going full Rtard why let facts like China only has 60 of these aircraft in service get in the way of making a bombastic infographic.

Tejas only has 1500 or so flight hours - comparing it to any of the aircraft on this list is laughable 🤣
 
So this should be considered an operational accident? Because as I understand where flying hours and the nature of the manoeuvres play a major role. If it was a technical failure, that’s still possible—but

based on what we can see, it appears that a minor mistake led to the incident. He was flying very close to the ground, and we’ve seen similar accidents in the past under such conditions.
It is unreasonable to blame the deceased pilot for the accident. Currently, everyone's analysis is speculative; the truth requires an investigation report, but how reliable is India's investigation report? The plane was flying close to the ground; is it possible that the aircraft lost responsiveness and the pilot was unable to control it?

Aviation expert Zhang Wei said: The initial state of the Tejas fighter jet was level, then the plane suddenly rolled, with the nose pitching down into a dive. At that time, the plane was not very high and was performing an inverted maneuver. Although the pilot tried to regain control and lift the plane, the altitude was too low for him to save the aircraft, and he also lost the chance to eject.

There are two possible causes of the accident. The first possibility is a problem with the aircraft's control system. The Tejas fighter is computer-controlled, and a malfunction in the control system could have caused the sudden roll. The pilot tried to save the plane, but the time and altitude were insufficient to do so. Another possibility is pilot error, where the pilot misjudged the altitude or attitude. At airshows, pilots from various countries aim to showcase their best condition and the aircraft's optimal performance, which means that any operational error, mechanical failure, or unexpected situation can easily lead to a crash.
 
Two question remain unanswered.
Teja stall , exact same situation when Indian airliner stall and crashed recently in Ahmedabad.
Second, ejection seat failure.

Negative G theory is wrong which is promoted most of Indian experts on TV. That is the insult of pilot or show the extreme lack of Indian pilots training.
The HAL Tejas inherited the tailless delta wing layout of the Mirage 2000, which provides advantages in high-speed performance and structural strength, but it has a relatively low aspect ratio and insufficient stability for loitering. Since the internal fuel tank can only hold 2.4 tons of fuel, the actual combat radius is only 350 kilometers. Although the Tejas is positioned as a light fighter, its empty weight reaches 6.5 tons. The overweight structure and insufficient engine thrust result in its maximum g-force being locked at 5.5G.

A higher g-force value indicates that the aircraft can withstand greater acceleration. Second-generation fighter jets typically have a g-force range of 3–6G, while third-generation fighters increase to 6–9G. The physiological limit of human pilots is about 8G, and exceeding this limit can lead to blackout or loss of consciousness. ...

It's pilot error , no sugar coating.....my younger brother ( RIP) crashed his aircraft doing similar low altitude stunt .

There is very technical reasons that while pitching drive, very close to the land, it's very hard to pull up.. take example of typhoon fighter crashed.

There are many similar incidents -
At low altitude, the aircraft has almost no vertical space to correct a mistake.
Even if the pilot pulls the nose up, the jet needs distance to create lift and climb.
A fighter at high speed may need hundreds of meters to recover.

Take a another look of Pakistani pilot crashed a f16 during the rehersal - plane was unable to climb and only crashed on the land - because the same reason - you have very less chances to correct you mistakes if you are flying very close to the land and doing high G turns

That's plain wrong ... the leaking aircraft was KH-5025, the one that flew and crashed KH-2026.
Are you talking about tail numbers

Yes just heard Avm chisti taking about Tejas. He said most of them are deployed far away from the combat zone areas. Why? Because they are deemed unfit for combat. This whole project is a political product. That's how procurements work in Indian air force. Even current Indian air chief expressed his dissappoinment on TV.
And unlike JF17 thunder they never participated in any combat and never secured a single jet order. And after what the whole world and potential buyers witnessed at Dubai air show it's a final nail in the coffin.

really telling when they cite the number of sorties and not flight hours.
