Can they elucidate what exactly the MK1A lacks now? So much of time for refinement and its still not upto standards?

Just want excuses, import lobby. Govt also doing right, not coming under pressure.

IAF has a long history not supporting indianization.

If we were visionary enough we should have gone for M88-3,4 for MK1A and MK2 respectively and built on M88 again for AMCA. But now we are completely dependent on Americans for all our engines from Destroyers/Frigates to 5th gen jets !!

You can't biuld on m88.
The design architecture of 5th gen engines is completely different.
Tho you can learn "material science" based on that.

Don't know about the second tweet. But first one seems accurate since 912 trm aesa is almost as big as rafale radar.

So tracking j10 at these ranges is on par.

Hopefully, Biden was the worst thing that happened to India in a long time

We must mass-produce Tejas.
