India Eyes Israel’s 6th-Gen, AI-Enabled BVR Missile To Supercharge LCA Tejas, Blunt China’s PL-15/PL-17 Edge

You sound angry. What scares you? From India's perspective, things are going all too well. We are keeping our land, doing our thing, growing our economy while suffering no cost. Since no one can change the status quo, how are we not "winning"? Victory comes in many flavors.
What scares you? A bunch of guys armed with AKs killing Hindus? All that bluster for nothing lol :)
 
You've been "eyeing" the Rafale since the early 2000s, along with Su57 and tejus, carry on eyeing. What reason is there to be worried? 20 years ago you clowns were saying a Mig21 Bison armed with IAI jamming pods would be enough to defeat the PAF, the it was the "Raptor of the East", then it was "if only we had Rafales"...now it's "if only we had 6th gen BVR missiles"...What's next "if only we had Tie Fighters with laser cannons"?

At one point they have claimed to be buying every fighter on the market

Gripen, F-15, MIG-35 etc

I remember, they strung along all the major manufacturers for almost 20 years, and then eventually ordered around a dozen Rafales...which are now heavily depleated. They have no choice but to but Rafales now.

Oh yeah, Boeing, LMTAS, SAAB where all sending fighters over for the show, renaming planes like F-16 = F-21, promising ToT, export rights for Indian made planes etc

Indians kept "clearing" MRCA and "on verge of announcing winner".

In the end bought the same number of planes as Qatar.

Same show is being played out now, this time round French have wised up, not agreeing to any Indian terms and just giving a "take it or leave it" offer.

No ToT and possibly no Indian production line.

Tejas Mk1A Near Pakistan Border: How Stealth Edge & 160km Astra Mk1 to Give IAF First-Track, First-Strike Advantage Over J-10C

Since you have been tracking Chinese J20s to estimate a rough quantity based on tail numbers. Could you please do the same for LCA Tejas?

Is PAF doomed by the numerous advanced stealthy Tejas rolling out with the super secret Astra BVR? Should we all shake in our boots in fear of this new development?

HAL Tejas is in a similar category to the JF-17. If the JF-17 isn't compared with the J-10 or J-20, then similarly, HAL Tejas can't be compared with them either.

HAL Tejas will have only a specific role – point defence.

One is proven battle tested and exported.

Take the other one out the conversation

Well, Mig 17.19 and 21 are also proven and tested but can't fight 5th gen fighters... I said based on both being similar categories and technology.
