i-Derby-ER new BVR missile for Tejas Mk-1A

in short EL-2032 + Pythion 5 , Derby & I Derby ER will give light fighter like Tejas a offensive capability like PAFs F-16 Block-52 :victory::yahoo::dance3:

Not really Teja will remain a 3rd generation aircraft with fourth generation avionics and armament - similar to JF-17

It would be MKI vs F-16 Block-52 in 4th gen.

Primary difference would be due to training and tactics.
 
Defensive capability i will say
i say offence is the best defnce :D

anyway thread is about LCA and as per all that i could get from social media and some other sources just a few things which both MOD & HAL/ARDE hace decided for LCA Tejas programme

1. give it EL-2032,DASH HMDS, LIGHTNING G4 LDP & new imporroved version of indo-israli hybrid of mayawi EW suite

2. for air to air wepons R-73 , Python5 , Derby & I Derby ER

3. For air to ground all avilable smart , laser guided and pricission guided munations in IAF innoventorry

4.New quartz rodome with a new titanium alloy light landing gear , new air intakes & 800-1000 wieght cuttings

by all these measures LCA will be better to almost 15%-25% in all its current capabilities

you can beleve what you want but it wont me MKI Vs F-16 block 52 infact it will be Mig 29 Vs F-16s and the top cover will be given by MKI (tell me how many block 52 f-16s you have :azn:) ...... :sarcastic:

Mig 29 does not have trans frontier capability due to technical reasons. Would be used in point defence role.

Never denied the stats
It will come under the 4th gen fighters and will give a tough competition to vipers when backed by awacs

But it cant go for an offensive due to its range...
Tejas will be best bird in the light category for point defence and interception

wrong again LCA Tejas & Mig21s are for point defnce india went for Mig29s onli after USA agreed to supply F-16s to pakistan in 1980s go google it and correct your facts :pleasantry: :agree:

also care to google about how recent mig29 upgrade programme:sarcastic:
 
Just check out new Mig-29upg of IAF

Links or details please. According to my info the radar has a large doppler notch and poor sub clutter visibility which limits engagements in the look down shoot down configuration.

sirji i know that but Tejas was always for replacing aging Mig21 fleet of IAF and tejas was always a light point defnce fighter but since IAF top brass and MOD beurocracy and UPAs politicians wanted a hefty kickbacks they always tried to scuttle it by raising the bar for Tejas and what started as a cheap pointy defnce fighter for mig21s now has morphed into a very potent and leathel light MRCA as for AWACS well we also have Phalcons and desi DRDO AWACS :cheers:

Just negated your own self.
 
Just negated your own self.
in times of WAR pre concived roles dont realli matter what matters is capability LCA was always a point defnce fighter

but with current cpabilities it can be a very good point defnce and limited offence roles whats wrong in having extra backup or say plan B :azn:
 
Just negated your own self.
Tejas is meant for point defence but it can go for offence with drop tanks
But it doesnt makes sense to send tejas for sead/Dead operations when you have jags and mirages which are better for such roles

But it doesnt mean that tejas cant....it has got the punch
