But this is India's first attempt at making a naval based fighter. I am sure it will make some bad as looking naval fighters in the future.:victory:

The French , whatever they may be, make some nice aircraft!
 
Apart from the canards, I don't see much similarity either. I don't know about the internal components but I had to pick either based solely on looks; it would have to be the Rafale for me.

Bhai they are not cancards but LAVCONS.
.
The airframe of the naval variant of the Tejas will be modified with a nose droop to provide improved view during landing approach, and wingleading edge vortex controllers (LEVCON) to increase lift during approach.
The LEVCONs are control surfaces that extend from the wing-root leading edge and thus afford better low-speed handling for the LCA, which would otherwise be slightly hampered due to the increased drag that results from its delta-wing design. As an added benefit, the LEVCONs will also increase controllability at high angles of attack (AoA).
