Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft [AMCA] Development | Updates & Discussions.

You made my point for me. Everything is "going to happen", been like this for years, nothing changes.

What do you want? Everything to happen overnight?

That's sadly been the way business is done even in these crucial PSUs.. babu culture, slackers.

One of the many good thing the Modi admin has done is to trim the bureaucracy, divest, and encourage private players taking the work culture away from the old Raj era and subsequent Nehruvian socialist ways toward something much more modern, and one can see a lot of work and progress being made in the defence sector.

AMCA will go through at a much quicker pace than the LCA for sure, watch this space.

Yes, your fellow posters said MK1A will be quicker then MK1, then other said MK2 will be quicker then MK1A, but guess what? Nothing has flown, so naturally I do expect you to say the AMCA will be quicker and so on and so on till next month you will tell us your 7th Gen Fighter is ready to fly and will be quicker then AMCA.

Words are all well and good, you still do not even have 2 full squadrons of LCA after 6 years of production.

Well yes, they're not the most efficient, unfortunately, and change is slow.

Should be rather accurate, given the design is frozen and the person handing the model is ADA's Director, Dr Girish Deodhare and the person receiving it is ACM RKS Bhadauria.

Can anyone explain what's the reason behind this change in the horizontal tails's leading edge? No fighter has this and there are several ones with quite a similar configuration like the F-22, F-35, FC-31, KF-21, TFX, ... ??

This picture seems fan made by someone unfamiliar with stealth design. There are three angles in the stabilizer when there should be just two. Or interpret it as two angles with depth parallel to wingtip angle rather than one angle with depth parallel with wingtip angle. Or they are comfortable with having an extra non aligned angle.

Anyway we are talking about preliminary fan made PPTs and models. Even the actual AMCA planned they said as finalized is not totally shown yet.

THIS AMCA looks very much like the F35 LIGHTENING

i SUSPECT STATIC MODEL by 2025
First flight 2026
IOC 2032
FOC 2035

Good thing India now has infrastucture in place to design and build fighters Drones & Helos

If it’s true then it’s great we’ll have EOTS.

 

[Black Tornado]

No Tejas delivered by HAL this year, no MK1A taken off yet, no MK2 Tejas even built yet, but now they are "constructing" AMCA.

Only in India, only in India......

AMCA prototype is a different thing compared to the serial production of the LCA.
