HAL LCA Tejas: Updates, News & Discussions

[Yasser76]

I think that one Tejas Mk1A, which recently completed its test flight, has either been delivered or is ready for delivery

I would imagine HAL need that for a least a couple of more years for testing no?

April is the 1st month of a financial year.

OK, how many did HAL deliver in last financial year?

 

[Yasser76]

Do Pakistanis not understand the concept of financial year ?

Deal signed in Feb-21 , HAL said that first jet will come after 36 months , and it did took off in march-24 , but airforce asked some more modifications, so delivery is delayed.

For someone who insults Pakistanis you spend a lot of time on a Pakistani defence forum. How many aircraft were delivered in the last financial year of any Tejas varient?

Delivery speed depends on order size, we don't overspend in military and make IMF trips at the same time.

83 is the first major order HAL received in Feb -2021 and delivery was planned in march-24(36 months, even Dassault asked same for Rafales).
But IAF again asked modifications so slight delay, but still first Mk1A has already made it's flight in march as per deal.

Yasser if you follow production of new combat planes most nations start off with small no's whilst ironing out faults and testing .
At the same time assembly lines are enhanced only once firm orders are placed
Between 2016-20222 these was only one assembly line max out put eight planes and that was not reached because mark1a was still evolving
2023 the second assembly line was opened with confirmed order of 83 planes
Now the third order of Lca mark 1a is confirmed a third line will be opened

I expect delivery to run as following for mark1a as follows
4 in 2024
8 in 2025
12-16 in 2026
16 in 2027
24 in 2028

There are expectations the second batch could be delivered 5 years post 2027 as every thing snowbals

 

[harpy1]

Either way India will field 200 Tejas Aesa equipped fiighters powered by USA engines in the next 10 years that are home grown .

How they stack up against similar number of JF17 block A B And C deserves a debate

 

[harpy1]

If you are over 50 may not happen in your lifetime....

Don't say that bro I intend to live to see the Amca flying in our Airforce flanked by Tejas mark two and the Indian wing man drone ...

I think you may not be able to quite understand, or maybe do not want to, how many did HAL deliver within a 12 month period? No need to be embaressed.

Sorry, many posters seem to have a problem understanding, no need for the long winded answer, and I appreciate what you THINK HAL may deliver in the future, but I will ask it again simply, in the last 12 months how many planes did HAL deliver? Let me know if you are unsure of the question.

Maybe you need to spend more on education as you cannot seem to answer a simple question in English. How many planes did HALD deliver in the last 12 months?

Delivery rate is directly proportional to order qty..
The total order qty was 20 IOC+ 20 FOC. .
While the main focus was on getting MK1A ready for March 24 deadline.
Wait till March 25 to know about the actual production rate.

The answer is 11

HAL Set to Deliver 11 LCA-Tejas Fighter Jets by March 2024, More Orders on Horizon – Indian Defence Research Wing

Anyway what's with the how many where delivered question

They have deliverd all the 40 mark one basic Tejas fighters end of the matter

We now moved to mark 1a first batch of 83
Then 2028/2029 to second batch hopefully 97 planes
I don't think anybody will be wondering how many where delivered in 2023
