HAL LCA Tejas: Updates, News & Discussions

[rafale]

The problem is that by that time it is already obsolete tech and system.

By that time there is a higher probability and chance that PAF fields 2x additional squadrons of lethal jets.....1xJ10 squadron and 1xJ35.

I mean i would bet my money on PAF.

Tejas is one of those shiny Project Management failure examples that can fill up an entire project management book on how not to do things.

I said this a year ago, 2025 will see the end of this project, former CAS stating this means this view is probably pretty common amongst top IAF brass. this will give the current CAS "Air cover" to cancel it.....if he can put down the Scotch for more then 20 minutes

Political suicide if cancelled.

Not denying that the project is late by miles. However the current capacity is 24 + 12 per year..

So Tejas squadrons are going to be smaller than other IAF squadrons just so they can say its 3 squadrons?

They'll define a new ISO standard of coping here.......

They have to report to Godi and then show achievements. It’s good from their accountability perspective except they are providing accountability to idiots who have zero idea how to use it for actual improvement and instead just want propaganda.

He is making sense because where it is currently it should have been there 15 years ago.

I would love to see how they manage to push out 50 jets even if they have 50 engines sitting around.

It's a case of fishbone pride.
Damn if they do damn if they don't .
The hallow pride doesn't even participate in Republic day flypast due to some single engine prohibition. Does this mean it will only participate in airbattles over barren lands .

High volatility and a complex social fabric—resulting in weakened legal frameworks—can be observed in the public’s choices of spices in food and preferences for cleanliness

duality, quantum fields and atomic realities can hide any distortion of truth!

but not to a trained eye, predator will hit, where severe impacts of breakages will be abrupt yet persistent!

truth sets one free!

I wonder you guys understand that squadron strength needs to be more than one aircraft?

Pakisranis are being silly. An enemy's incompetence should be encouraged and given more life, not mocked, made fun of or criticised in any way.

The Chinese, and everyone else with some common sense, have known this for ages. Why make any noise when an enemy is making mistakes?


The Pakistani psyche needs to be corrected in some areas regarding how to treat one of their worst enemies.

Its safe to say Teja bhai loved the free truck rides so much they never left it, it was such a failure that IAF never even used it against PAF in both confrontation in 2019 and 2025.. while our JF bhai taking out S-400 sites, doing CAP's, bombing Terrorists and performing other duties.

 

[Taimoor]

Is Trump - Modi Bhai bhai again?

Have a funny feeling those GE engines will be sanctioned, and Indian will get their money back via Soya beans, like we did.

IAF has never been a fan of anything that comes out of DRDO/HAL. But Tejas will not see its end so easily, especially not under the BJP. It has been marketed too much as India's pride and prestige to general public. Anyone seeking to do away with it might be become public enemy.

Even if the Tejas is a total turd they will induct it however slowly,
If it's then poor, they will hide it and use it as a propaganda tool with regular articles comparing Tejas to JF17, J10, F16, F35 etc

The indians have a very very fragile ego, and they can't take any more pain after 2019, 2020, 2025 a failed Tejas program might drive them mad

Trust me, we can mock the indians mercilessly, it doesn't matter, they are shameless

Yes, they are utterly and completely shameless liars. But they are humans afterall.

That is true.
