Yeah "I" cancelled it right?Dont cry too much dumb..Your claim was that LCA was still on the drawing board,remember ?
The fact is that we have LCA in series production,with FOC destined for 2015,and when it would be Inducted it would have far more capabilities than some 'joint fighters' at time of Induction - including BVR-Come back when you have an ultralight aircraft of your own design in series production.
redesigning 'nose'..50 km radar range...thanks-I add this to list of your dumb statements
No media reported any news of cancellations - it was only your delusions..
Meh...I wont post pics of your indigenously 'developed' microlight trike or gyrocopter here,don't provoke me to
And here we have it-Attempt to undermine Indian attempts to develop jet trainers & fighters in the 60s...
Is that some kind of joke ? HAL was established as Hindustan Aircraft in Bangalore in 1940 by Seth Walchand Hirachand.
So what ?From where he took a doctorate doesn't matter.What matters is his nationality and he designed basic & jet trainers.And fact that your country can't still can't develop what we developed in 60s.
What kind of BS is this ?Marut trainer ?Marut isn't a trainer!!
'Marut aka the pulqai'? Both are different aircraft you imbecile!
Marut was designed & built by a team of 150 Indian & 18 German engineers headed by Dr.Kurt Tank and more than 700 Indian ,in India.
It was designed for India and Egypt? Another dumb statement ?
Another dumb statement.We already have IOC for LCA mk 1 & it is in series production.And meanwhile develop a simple IFF for 'joint fighter'..
Here clown;
HYDERABAD: The joint venture between India's Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) and Israeli Aerospace Industry to manufacture Long Range Surface-to-Air Missile (LR SAM) and Medium Range Surface-to-Air Missile (MR-SAM) has turned out to be a non-starter.
The long range missiles were to have been delivered to the Indian Navy by 2012 while the medium range missiles should be in the Indian Air Force weaponry by 2017. However, both the delivery schedules are way behind schedule and show no signs of meeting them even in the near future.
DRDO officials are blaming the lack of progress in the joint venture due to lack of transparency and non-transfer of technology by their Israeli counterparts. And the recent trials that were conducted by the Indian defence organization failed to meet the standards of both the IAF and the Indian Navy. The entire cost of Rs 12,500 crore of the joint venture is being funded by India and the inordinate delay and lack of progress in the project has turned into a big cause of worry in the defence ministry.
According to sources, the LR-SAMs project was commissioned in 2006 and the delivery of the missiles to the Indian Navy should have happened by 2012. Similarly, the MR-SAM venture was signed in 2009 and the missiles are to be delivered to the Indian Air Force by 2017. Both both the projects are way behind schedule and show no signs of making progress.
"Frankly speaking, right now, not much is going on in the joint venture due to various issues between the two sides. Expecting Israel to share its technology with India is unfair. But such things should have been clarified before the joint venture was entered into," said an official.
DRDO is maintaining that it is because of the lack of transfer of technology that the trials conducted so far have ended up as failures. "Industries are merely getting the drawings as to how to produce certain systems and such things are leading to deviations from the laid down specifications because the knowledge to develop the systems is not being imparted," said sources.
DRDO officials are also attributing the delay to a complicated and long procedure involving shuttling between India and Israel for various stages of development of a system etc. The Hyderabad-based Indian defence organization also reportedly found itself helpless on problems in propulsion system and other related issues while a significant number of parts or systems are yet to be tested following a delay in manufacturing.
However, when quizzed on the issue, DRDO Director General Avinash Chander told the TOI that nothing was amiss. "Everything is going on as per the plan and development trials are on. We shall be able to deliver the MR-SAMs as per schedule. Right now, the contribution from India in the joint venture project is about 20% and would ultimately reach 80% in the final stages." Regarding the already delayed LR-SAM, DRDO officials declined to come on record.
MR-SAM, one of the major demands of the forces, is to have a range of 70 kms or so, and the IAF is banking on replacing its ageing Soviet-made Pechora SAM missiles with the MR-SAMs. But nobody is sure how long the wait is going to be, and whether the delivery will take place at all.
