HAL has serious quality control issues here it seems, just look at how much the paint job is peeling off the aircraft itself. Wonder what else, under the skin has has the "same love and care.."

Those "patches" are far to random and disorganised to the product of organised thought or a plan. It is paint peels from the subsurface conducting layer for sure.
Tejas LSPs and prototypes had those random conducting patches. The one in service has conducting tapes instead of random patches as can be seen in pic below.

In what will be a big move for the Tejas fleet, Astra Mk1 BVRAAMs are to be flight tested from Tejas Mk1 fighters soon.

And DRDO is planning to test the 160 km dual pulse Astra Mk2 BVRAAMs next year. Astra Mk3 will be based on the SFDR technology demonstrator and is being designed to be India's own Meteor.

Astra Mk1 missile to be soon tested from Tejas fighter

India’s first indigenous air-to-air missile Astra will soon be tested from the first home-grown fighter Tejas, in yet another major step towards making the weapon the mainstay of the country’s combat fleet against hostile jets in the years ahead.

The integration of the Astra beyond visual range air-to-air missile (BVRAAM), which flies over four times the speed of sound at Mach 4.5, on the Tejas and the “initial ground trials” are virtually complete now. “The flight trials of the indigenous missile on the indigenous fighter will begin within the next few months,” said a source on Thursday.
...
DRDO also plans to begin testing the Mark-2 version of Astra, with a range of 160-km, in the first half of next year. Plans are concurrently underway for a 350-km range Astra Mark-3 as well, said the sources.

This table goes with that image of where the fuel tanks and drop tanks are located.

3 separate saddle tanks and RH and LH wing tanks for fuel. Total 3388 kgs of internal fuel, which exceeds that of the Mirage-2000. With the drop tanks, it can carry a total of 7148 kgs of fuel. With a single F-414 engine, which has a low SFC, the range will be even greater than that of the Mirage-2000.
