Sorry-Typing mistake . This touch-pad of Blackberry is hard to master. esp if you type fast. Fi-as-co

No , EUMA is must for Purchasing any sophisticated Military equipment under FMS/or Mult-vendor tender route. Even for C17 and C130 , bcoz some of the defensive suite are under the clause. If you dont sign it , it will be impossible to receive something like APG-80 radar from US. See if...

They have tried to push the limits of Indian Capability, whether that has impressed IAF is a big ? Do other aircrafts in contention will give similar capability? Gripen does give a Lethal Punch for Bucks they are charging , but will it completely rule the sky and provide defence for Indian...

Try and read something on EUMA , its various clauses . May be for intro this link will help- Under pressure, India agrees to sign EUMA | India Defence Online

No they don't . My posting is all based on little talk i do with airmen in Pune Air-force base whom I look after. While most other part is due to Internet , when i am free in hospital and there is no patient rush I always have my Blackberry up and running. Gambit , thnx for info...

But in case of LCA jump is substantial . In only 650 mm you are trying to pack 1500 modules . That is huge Just calculate the avg power rating for half beam , 750 modules multiply by 5 (since ELTA-2052 specs are not known assuming 5 RF element in each array), keeping 50% as duty cycle ...

Now the pic you are showing is F111 , it is a huge size nose . here it is But Size is limiting factor in case of LCA it will allow only 600-650 mm antennae. No its not , length is not factor . How much size you antennae is depends on height that is Circular space in case of...

some problem with posting, may be my Blackberry is playing trick. I will do it later

^^^^^^ I think you havent read about tejas You say only airframe is 4.5 Gen. 1.- Have you seen the FCS and FBW of Tejas . Its qudraplex and fully digital while Gripen has 3 digital and 1 analogue .The unstable configuration of LCA demands a highly efficient Integrated Flight Control System...

Its not about putting TR modules alone. you need to accommodate antennae+every subsystem in that size , means if you are putting 1500 module on 650 mm antennae ( size of MMR) you require to put that many wave-shifters and cooling mechanism within that cranked space. When you have RF...

1500 modules is meant for size of nose of SU30 . LCA's nose can at max accommodate 700 modules , not more than that. That too on a 650 mm antennae (same as MMR). I think ELTA's brochure says Modules can vary acc to size of aircraft. http://www.iai.co.il/sip_storage/files/4/36834.pdf

Agreed , now to you -what is f15SE rcs and Shaping line for radar return. Even bigger question what is RCS of CFT when used on f15SE which Boeing talks about so much. Forget PAK-FA , at this stage i can show Gripen, Rafale, F18E having better rcs than F15SE

THIS will be a good discussion point F15 RCS vs PAK-FA F15E RCS - Lets get it going , What is F15E RCS?????? , which are lines of shapings on F15 E airframe

Lets wait till evening , everything will be clear. Hope for best. LSP4 and LSP5 before year end and IOC by DECEMBER looks reality now This is from todays newspaper print edition http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/LCA-Tejas-makes-successful-flight/articleshow/5849706.cms Imp...

Yes , may be But might be they just bypassed 2032 and decided to go along with 2052 without any hassle in future. And use that T/R JV for AEW . Lets wait till evening Things will clear out. Timeline for LSP-4,5 is indeed welcome thing.

I hope IAF evaluation team when reaches Sweden after this volcano ash settles down as they are stranded in midway , get to fire METEOR on Gripen . That would be just the final impetus that would seal deal in favour of Swedes.
