If Python-5 is selected for our LCA then it's going to Kickass fighter.....:smitten:

and for BVR missile we are going to use ASTRA missile in future....

Astra missile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Astra has a 120 km Head on pass range....:woot:
and 25 km Tail chase rang......:woot:

And New Mark-2 Astra going to have Max range of 150 KM:woot:
And tail Chase range up to 35km:woot:

India to replace its Magic heat-seeking air-to-air missiles with Asraam missiles

India plans to replace its Magic heat-seeking air-to-air missiles with the Asraam missile. Magic is a French developed, 89 kg (196 pound) missile with a max range of 11 kilometers. It was introduced in 1975, and underwent a major upgrade in the late 1980s. But Magic is considered past its prime.

Asraam entered service in 2002, mainly developed by Britain. It is an 88 kg (194 pound) missile with a range of 18 kilometers and a high capability heat seeker sensor system. The Asraam would replace Magic missiles now carried by a hundred Jaguar and fifty Mirage 2000 jet fighters.

To get the deal, Asraam manufacturer MBDA agreed to jointly develop, with India, a new generation air-to-air heat seeking missile.

Air Weapons: The Magic Is Gone

wise decision..???

As for now and for M2K/Jaguar OK. But IRIS-T is better than ASRAAM. We are getting RVV-MD for future FGFA but we should cooperate with Israel for Python-6.
