Indian posters are not assuring you anythingLast 200 pages of this thread is Indian posters assuring us of delivery on certain dates. Maybe just wait till HAL finally delivers something for once?

HAL is under pressure ,if they don’t deliver , they won’t get further orders.
Well their jobs are complex not everyone is blessed with a job of painting & using Chinese sops for assembly.
Yeah, quite complex painting an indian flag on a French designed jet with missing American engines, using isreali radars and russian missiles.Well their jobs are complex not everyone is blessed with a job of painting & using Chinese sops for assembly.
Of all the subjects on this forum, "HAL promises Tejas delivery" is the last hill anyone should be choosing to die on...Yeah, quite complex painting an indian flag on a French designed jet with missing American engines, using isreali radars and russian missiles.

HAL says five Tejas Mk-1A jets ready, but delivery to IAF may miss deadline again
NEW DELHI: HAL has announced that five Tejas Mk-1A fighter jets are ready for induction after completing weapons trials, but defence sources say delivery to thewww.newindianexpress.com
However, sources in the defence and security establishment said that although the jets have successfully completed weapons trials, including the firing of two missiles and the release of a laser-guided bomb, final Staff Qualitative Requirements (SQR) certification and mandatory operational demonstrations are still pending, a requirement for formal induction into service.
It's a form of operational test for them to see if they can switch between modes and different systems in one operational sortie. But their problem is that despite all the flight hours there is variance in manufacturing quality of the jets partly due to changing teams and partly due to HAL having to deal with rather PoS local subcontractors for their jets.Is it normal for every jet to fire two missiles and a LGB ?? Or is this because the "1a" is being considered as a new type?
It would be odd for every jet delivery?
15 Tejas Mk 1A already built by HAL.
