Hey, when is FOC specifications coming out bro?

Also, FOC specifications would be the "final" product specifications for Tejas MK1, right?

Are Air to Air Refueling probe integration can delay the FOC for Tejas ???
HAL Chairman T Suvarna Raju, who is keeping a close watch on the production schedules, said that the complex integration work is nearing completion. “Once the integration work is done, we will have the engagement checks to ensure that the flow is right. This will be followed by dry and wet runs again to check the flow rate of fuel. Finally, we will take the fighter for the mid-air-refueling trials,” says Raju.
