LCA Tejas Mk-II To Have Indigenous AESA Radar
Only been hearing about the E F414 that will power the LCA Tejas Mk-II, never heard anything about the radar, but at the recently concluded International Conference on Energising Aerospace Industry, got to know that the AESA will be on the Mk-II, indigenously built, making the Mk-II a full-fledged multirole fighter, besides other stuff like new avionics and airframe.
Right now under design and conception stage, the radar will have some help from outside, but largely home-built.
Indigenous content on the Mk-II will be 75 per cent. First flightof Mk-II expected in 2013 and induction into the IAF approximately by 2015.
Chindits: LCA Tejas Mk-II To Have Indigenous AESA Radar
If just thinking about can get you all you wanted. DRDO makes big claims and lot of times unrealistic. This is specially true for LCA program. Just saying, we will have it does not mean we will. Sancho is right.
