Tejas FOC : Miles to go

No wing design will not be same. It will be arrow delta.

Look at arrow delta wing.

Also see landing gears shifted to wing root like Grippen. Half a meter increase in length will give plane a batter fitness ratio and refined aerodynamics.

these are not official renderings
just fanboy stuff

These may be Fanboy stuff but what you see is very much a part of new designs planned for MK2. Arrow delta will fit more for this design. Shifting of landing gear will release lots of space in fuselage that will allow readjustment of LRUS that will obviate the need of DEAD WEIGHT for balancing which is there in MK1. There will be a change in cockpit design also. It will be a bubble type cockpit.

Yes, There will be a redesign nosecone also.

Isn't this the Naval version ??

No. look at the Cockpit.

No. look at the Cockpit.

Look at the caption on the top and the arrestor hook on the tail .

May be but Naval Tejas has lowered nosecone for batter visibility which is not seen in above picture. Parheps LAVCON design is planned in NAVAL MK2. Both seems missing in above picture.

Aren't you talking about this picture ??

Both are visible .

OK You are right. I posted wrong picture. This is NAVAL MK2 and Not IAF MK2.

There is no official news of delay but still it will delay as the the thumb rule of DRDO. These guys are very week in project Management and perhaps ill funded for such complex project.

With Refined aerodynamic, 40% additional fuel and landing gear shifted to wing root, 500 KG less weight and new age Avionics and AESA, this plane is going to be an *** kicker and shall be more than a match for anything in Asia except SU 30. Its performance is going to be comparable to EUROFIGHTER and Grippen NG.

1. That pic is not official but livefist crap, so no point in referring to that.

2. Performance Comparable to eurofighter? you are suggesting a single engine fighter will have same performance levels as that of a twin engine fighter of different category? kindly use common sense

3. ADA has already mentioned many a times that changes will be minimal to keep the development time as short as possible.

Well if its any solace to you..it will still be able to cook a mean pair of tandoori tanks in a CAS role.

Its far more capable than that.
