Flat tops are good. Are they not? Japan has many.
They are for Japan as they cannot have Aircraft carriers as per Article 9 and use them to operate ASW helis to counter subs of PLAN , But in a war time an AC would be more important for country like India hence we went for them .
But in peace times they can be really useful like helping other countries in times of natural calamities as their primary load is choopers which are used in SAR operations and have plenty of room inside for the rescued people .
On topic we don't need to operate Tejas from them we have more than enough platforms for that and more gonna join in the future . We need them for their heli capability as of now .
