HAL LCA Tejas: Updates, News & Discussions

So Eurofighter use Sniper pod or Martin Baker seat, does it make it foreign? US should ask for workshare in it.

That’s a new concept of IP of system of systems. But this forum is filled with enlightened people, might be they are right.


I think we were talking about the general design of a certain type and who was responsible for the overall design (1) and project management (2). For the JF-17 this was surely in (1) mostly China in the same way the Initial design for the Tejas was done by foreign companies … the Eurofighter however was clearly developed by a European joint venture and any US system included like the Sniper does not make the Typhoon a US design?,

In Gripen most of CFD studies were done by US, even the wind tunnel testing, further the FBW system of Gripen was developed with help of US after that infamous crash.

So Gripen is a US design, I think swedes going to love this.

It really does have a LOT of US input and that was needed to take that technological leap over the Viggen.

Using US facilities and components (33%) doesn’t make it a US design but it also means it would not be possible to achieve without US assistance.
