That is a very good theory and countries like USA and China are more or less working on that concept but there's just one hiccup in it
Amca should carry 2 more wvr, but Not a good comparison as f22 is more of a heavy fighter while amca is medium.
That would be hard to achieve.
So far the payload for cats warrior are saaw and wvr missile.
Some engines are better than no engines.
So, true..... Our Babus thought Americans won't arm twist LCA program by harassing us with the availability of engines.on good ol' D F I it was mentioned that very first 'technical demonstrators', that are now catching dust in HAL's museum in Bangalore, either KH2001 or KH2002, one of them was actually ground-tested and air intakes certified with russian RD-33 as an alternative engine in hand IF unkil sam doesn't let us have F404 - but it's all tales from those era when Kaveri was already being hailed as mainstay for LCA
eventually US of A allowed F404 to us and that thing of perhaps putting RD-33 on LCA was shut offif only it wasn't...we could've perhaps gotten a good fleet of Tejas flying with that engine, no matter how questionable its performance be
The CATS Warrior is just one of the many CCAs being designed. The Warrior would in all likelihood be a CCA to the current fleet of FAs being developed / in service.
What happened to you my Guy?

So it is not about comparing with other jet but having sufficient weapons considering countermeasures & tactics. PAKFA-FGFA didn't work. No AHCA RFI/RFP yet.
AAMs internally by weight. Doesn't this look astonishing?

F-35 fighter jet: What's a G2G deal, and why it's preferred
President Donald Trump announced the US's willingness to sell F-35 fighter jets to India during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent visit. Such a deal is likely to follow the government-to-government mode, ensuring better pricing, delivery, and protection, similar to India's Rafale jet...m.economictimes.com
Actually the problem of Indian AERO designers is that they are over-exaggerating the battle situation... Someone needs to talk with these designers that BASIC BATTLEFIELD REQUIREMENT OF MISSILES will never be compensated by other platforms like wingman.... MINIMUM OF 6 HARD-POINTS inside IWB is absolutely necessary, along with that 2 side bays can be accommodated for small WVR missiles....the MAIN PROBLEM IS BABUS( IAS ) who are incharge of the organisation can't enforce these requirements on AERO DESIGNERS because They have specialisation/ degree/ interest in HISTORY/GEOGRAPHY/POLITY/SOCIOLOGY and NOT ON MODERN MILITARY DEVELOPMENT & NEW AGE INNOVATIONS which are happening all around the world....WE NEED A STRONG PROTEST AGAINST THIS BABU-CULTURE, OTHERWISE IT'LL DESTROY Us Oneday...and WE, the public of India, ARE GLORIFYING THESE BABUS IN SOCIAL MEDIA, INSTITUTIONS, HOME, SCHOOLS, COLLEGES everywhere....WE ARE SHAMELESS PEOPLEThere are numerous bloggers, vloggers, journalists.

Mr. Saurav Jha was smiling
- AMCA will work in silent mode (but will enemy be in broadcast mode?
- AMCA will fire BVR-AAMs & never require CCMs, so SWB not required.
- AMCA won't encounter enemy steath jet WVR.
So,
- Enemy countermeasures won't work?
- Enemy won't use BFM tactics or won't work?
- Astr BVR-AAMs cannot miss targets?
> Integrated/Networked battle picture with LOAL-AAMs improves situational awareness & flexibility of who looks & who shoots, but overall & individual firepower has to be maintained. The 5gen philosophy is already sneaking & pack-hunting.
> Missile tech improve on offence side, countermeasures & tactics improve on defence side.
Sword Vs Shield
> We wan't our jets & UCAVs to attack, succeed & survive & the enemy would do same. This means more shots required by both sides in BVR & WVR.
> Once weapons are depleted, the air asset becomes defenceless & dependent for protection.
> Some of us are glorifying our 4.5gen jets based on composites, MLUed components from 5gen, but arrogantly under-estimating enemy's not only 4.5gen but also 5/6gen. So, we wan't our Rafale, Su-30MKI, LCA, MWF, TEDBF, Mirage-200, MiG-29 to succeed but enemy's jets will be cola cans
This is why i repeat "Focus on technology directy instead of who says what"
What is the max number of air to air missiles fired by a single jet in a war action the last 40 years ?
No shot we're getting F-22, also tejas does have BVR, its Astra mk1, missile isn't the issue here, delivery of tejas is. buying F-16 is dumb and you're here asking to buy old F-16 which is straight up comedy. buying america jets in-general is a huge headache, we can't use our own missile and bombs on it.
Very interesting question. But whatever be the fact, it didn't stop any of the makers to keep their jets prepared for max A-A config.
J20- 4 bvr, 2wvrVery interesting question. But whatever be the fact, it didn't stop any of the makers to keep their jets prepared for max A-A config.
I meant beast mode by max AA config, 4.5gen jets included for last 40 years.
