What is the problem in comparative and competitive trials between Tejas MK-I and Mirage-2K. It will bring the truth to the Public weather ADA/DRDO or IAF which is on the fault. ADA/DRDO with inferior quality product or IAF for its LOVE FOR "PHORANE MAAL".
If a Journalist does not tag your thought line he is loosing creditability??? Good Logic!!!!
Apart from Weapons load Tejas MK-I beats Mirage-2000 on all accounts. Weather in air to air config or ground attack. Keep in mind Tejas demonstrated Multi Roll capabilities - PGM attack, Dispensation of Flare Chaffs and firing of Air to Air Missiles all in 100 seconds.
It will be definitely be comparable to Gripen C/D just match the spacs of Tejas MK-I & Gripen C/D you will know the answer.
The comparison is very much Important because "IAF is spending $40 Million per plane on upgradation of Mirages to latest Standard". If IAF thinks it is that much important to Upgrade Mirages then Mirages must be superior to Tejas-MK-I.
It is not going to surpass the new upgraded M2k in any area (except in RCS or some CAS duties).
But If it is able to deliver the performance of 70 to 80% of what M2k provides, then it is a success. That is what a light fighter is gonna give you. Do not put M2k or F-16 as a light fighter
