Anyone can please explain why this color gets chosen. I mean from camouflage purpose will yje sky type color not be better? What is the criteria used to finalize the color.

 

[Indischer]

It's a old mock up. The picture is several years old. Nothing to do with the Tejas's coming out of production.

It's Yindu. And Yindu, Indus, Hindu, etc, etc. have the same origin.

Composites are unreliable?That was a nice joke.

Actually, he's not completely wrong. Composite materials (if not manufactured correctly) are quite dangerous. Pakistan doesn't have much experience using such materials, not to mention the price, so Pakistan is better off with what it has currently. More composite materials will probably be used in future blocks, but for what Pakistan has (you have to admit) the vehicle is potent for what it's meant for with or without composites.

Composites are not unreliable themselves but the method of assembling them is.

India uses so much composite material, while the rest of the world don't, is it because India is the best fighter maker in the world....?

Eurofighter uses more composite material than LCA.

Well I have heard of that.Anyway,the agency behind developing composite components for LCA is NAL,who has considerable expertise in developing composite components for aerospace (read ISRO).And it has mastered many sophisticated technologies like Carbon fiber Wing for LCA.

Composites are the way to go.
