[DANGER-ZONE]

Without Chinese assistance, Pakistanis could not even imagine how to design an airpane. The condition of Pakistan's aerospace industry can be understood by the fact that they need Chinese rockets to launch basic satellites.

hmmmmmmm 10 Flight in 2 day, it seem they are hurry

 

[HariPrasad]

Good going. 8 flights in 2 days. Let us expect IOC by November.

 

[shiv]

if i am not wrong, it is the LSP-7 which will be pushed to production ?

Why not LSP 8? After all it is more modern as it is the last version of LSP series with modifies air intake and other changes ?

What happened to LSP 6?

I dont follow LCA developments that closely but I read it somewhere about LSP-7 being the final model or something ! Perhaps a more learned guy can throw some light on it

No man LSP 7 can not be. You might have read that it is very close to IOC standard. If they are going to produce LSP 7 than what is the meaning of developing LSP 8 for 1 year? 20 LSP 8 with some modifications shall be produced and rest 20 shall be FOC standard. Current order is of 40 planes.

LCA MK2 will come (Planned) meanwhile in next 2 years. work on MK2 is already started. It will be out in 2014 may fly in 2015. FOC in 2016 and Induction in 2018.

Hope MK II will fly in 2015. Though I am not that optimistic at best they can get FOC for MK II by 2019.

 

[duhastmish]

Came to this thread after years and still same ol. This is happening for past 10 years. Now 2018 is suppose to be induction but I will be surprised if they can make it till 2025. I seen the labs and scientists Tejas is in wrong hands for development and moreover for IAF who doesn't want it.
Scrap it and go for private sector companies with time limitation.

Wasn't LSP-8 part of IOC-2 ??? Why it is still with HAL ?
