HAL Tejas | Updates, News & Discussions-[Thread 2]

[The Eagle]

@SDS1 @The Eagle @nang2

Please don't go offTopic, keep discussion to Tejas only.

or Move your posts to JF-17 threads if you want to discuss about that or its ejection seats.

@eldarlmari
Start a thread on Reverse Engineering Capability of Countries/India if you want to discuss.

Indeed it shouldn't be discussed here but response was to the subject of a member's claim. It was an indirect message for the one to understand the topic in hand rather than dragging irrelevant subjects.

I encourage you to keep thinking in this way.

You mean like "High IQ" Chinese

You mean like "High IQ" Chinese

I meant that specific Indian.

It's not that Indians do not want to copy planes, it's that they CANT- they do not have the know-how and the various supporting infrastructure, along with technical capabilities to reconstruct a blueprint from scratch by taking a plane apart.

Keep underestimating Indians. We ain't complaining.

glad u understood the difference between 'Make in India' and 'Made in India'

Our strength is our foreign policy. The way we have earned respect from both USA and Russia despite their own differences, have never hesitated to offer their cutting edge products to India. It is not that India cannot reverse engineer, rather India has not invested in this method. We license produce with the amount of TOT. We have been making Russian Engines for decades and could have just copied one if its designs dubbed Kaveri, Instead it was designed from scratch. Su 30 MKI is being Manufactured from Raw materials since 2010, yet we have not tampered with its technology. We have benefited immensely by the experience and Technical know-how these products have brought in, inspiring our engineers and scientists to take up indigenous designs. Had we reverse engineered we might have been more successful but would have definitely failed as a friend.

Someone send a Tweet to Shekkar Gupta saying that its H-A-L no one called it 'HAL' (as in HAL-9000), he writes on defence and doesn't know that OEM?

NOT

Major modules of Tejas are outsourced now. L&T will produce the wings, center fuselage to VEM Tech.

Note : Location of the Probe is different from the earlier one

If India looking F 16 or Gripen for Mig 21 then LCA is dead horse .
