what do you mean by thrust of N-LCA , non of the F404IN going for it , they all will be on the first bach of IAF..
N-LCA will be on F414 , where is the question of thrust came for N-LCA ?
The first 6 will hose only F404IN.. we have signed a deal only couple of months back after negotiation for 414 though we choose on sep last year .. and the aircraft will fly in july or august .. while the first 414 will come in early 2014 ... so no way these 6 will have 414..
so there is the question of thrust.. if you dont believe me see the news
