An amazing sight. Naval LCA has no dearth of admirers. May our carriers be populated by NLCA Mk2.

Any updates on sp10
I saw upto sp14 on various jigs in a 8 months old video on YouTube

In fact, SP21 has been loaded if I'm right. Hopefully we'll get a flurry of launches this FY. SP21 will likely be available before trainers are out.

SP21 after SP16. Gap left for trainers.

Why not? Even if Naval Mark 2 wont make it, it's still a good tech demo for a possible N-AMCA.

AMCA will be so different : twin engined, classical wings vs coupound delta.

Navy will wholeheartedly take LCA Mk2. All they want is a better engine.

No other qualms about Mk1.

As we have found out, everything about the Naval variant has a steep learning curve. The take-offs, landing, Structure strengthening, landing gear design, arrestor hook, etc. This will be our stepping stone. What we continue to learn on this platform will lead to success either in the MK2 or future aircraft.

No Indian engine no Indian radar no Indian avionics = not an Indian plane.

For the engine, it's on the way.

This photo quite clearly shows that Tejas is the most industrial looking modern fighter.
