LCA Tejas is inferior to JF-17 Thunder Block III: Chinese expert

[Kaniska]

LCA Tejas and JF-17. Which fighter is better? Debate is pointless. India and Pakistan both want to export their fighters to foreign countries. Let customers self-assess. Buyers are always objective and fair, because they use their own money.

That is true...But in general, IAF is the shortage of fighter planes...So it is at no point of time will be ready to export...where as JF-17 is just another series of planes for China..They have enough inventory for their own fleet...So they can readily export and pump of production by funding extra money in plants in Pakistan and China...

 

[PradoTLC]

Rest are just funny... Battle tested.. hahaha

I agree it is incredibly funny...

IAF loaded with 4 gen+ planes like Su-30s, Mirages, Mig 29s (all upgraded) could not shoot down a single PAF plane... not even Mirage V of JF-17....

oh wait...

you did shoot down something... hmm .... your own helo


muhahahahhahhahhahahhahahha

 

[Raj-Hindustani]

why not India?...

LCA
Engine = 404 GE
Radar/ECM/ etc = israeli, US etc

Paint job -= 100% Indian

Hal tejas will have more than 85% indigenous.... In with, hal tejas mk1a.. Including radar...

Yes, engine is a painful but only a few countries have such technology.. And we need to work also..

Aircraft design - From BAE Systems
Airframe - From the same facility that produces F35 airframes.

Like honestly, without NATO tech, Turkey couldn't build a car let alone an aircraft.

And equally, you guys couldn't have built a single aircraft, let alone their core components, without heavy foreign assistance. So as I said earlier, don't forget the in-depth assistance from numerous number of Israeli, French, Russian and US technicians over the last 3 decades. Credit is due where it's due. Without them there would be no LCA.

And where are we at now, 5 decades in since Kurt helped you guys design and build that sluggish crap, the Marut, and since India started to venture into aviation industry for "self-reliance", you still need a lot of foreign assistance and technology? Where's the brainy Indians at, hello? Did decades of knowledge get buried? China is MILES ahead of India in aviation -- they've built so many different types of aircraft. They worked so hard despite sanctions on them, and their hard work paid off.

Well 1 side already has exported to 2 nations and has another 2-3 on the buyer list while the other side hasnt even put its air craft into service... so keep your bias elsewhere. This is def not an equal battle

Hope vietnam can buy a few LCAs

There is no bias here. Indians have completed production of LCA tejas and they are able to offer to Middle East and African countries, while JF-17 has only been exported to Myanmar and algeria. Buyers have a lot. South American and Iran countries are looking to buy large numbers of new fighters. A good plane will find a lot of buyers. Simple as that.

JF-17 sold to Burma and Nigeria

LCA = sold to ........... no one.

Good luck.

Like I said why doesnt vietname buy indian? since there products have such a good reputation including their helis... also you forgot to include exports to nigeria and multiple interest from egypt, azerbaijan, and other nations. What production has been complete the LCA has not even passed operations tests as of yet. Its a complete failure ask any aviation expert. Please try to open your eyes for once and read up facts

Don't make me laugh.

Indians do make great comedy.

Even with endless anti-muslim help the indiots could produce a simple mirage 3 prototype smh

They called it "Bingo" and ditched, left their media to play out the script of heroism (psst.. Lies).

 

[GumNaam]

Tejas is like the Indian bachelors, ever in search for the brides with the right amount of dowry, forgetting about the certain conjugal performance parameters...

JF-17s are like the mad max Merts - ever ready to go at a moment's notice...​

excellent analogy...the indian bachelor tejas is constantly trying to compensate for size, stamina, soft "payload" and...how can I say this politely...premature "ejection"!

 

[KaiserX]

They got their mig-21 shot down... got their super pooper su-30 shot down... got aced in their own territory for the world to see... to top it off shot down their own helicopter.

Oh yeah almost forgot the fact their pilot got captured... slapped multiple times and still claim the LCA is better than the JF-17
