2x 81 kn engines is kinda weak compare to other 2 engined 5th gen fighters with 155+kn each.
all the current fifth generation fighters are in the heavy category. The AMCA is intended to be light weight. Furthermore, I'm sure the thrust will be increased. Considering the first prototype is atleast a few years away from flying predicting the final engine specs from now is a little far fetched.

looks nice and sexy,but will it really take uptill 2025 to bring it into service,seriosly whats the point of even making it when a 6th generation plane would only be a few years away in other countries.....
even 2020 sounds late
Even the F-35 with its single uber powerful 220 Kn engine cannot super cruise. The AMCA should be at least as large with two engines. Even if they increased the engines to 100 Kn it will not super cruise. Even the J 20 with it current 155 Kn engines are unlikely to have super cruise until it gets the 185 Kn Ws 15. Hope they realize this.
New Recruit
WELL IT HAS TO INCLUDE SIX GEN TECHNOLOGY.
6TH GEN TECH??? WHAT IS IT?
Unless it is half the weight of the F 22 then it can't reach super-cruise with those engines. Hopefully they resolve that
the "Next Generation Tactical Aircraft"/"Next Gen TACAIR"[4], the USAF seeks a fighter with "enhanced capabilities in areas such as reach, persistence, survivability, net-centricity, situational awareness, human-system integration and weapons effects," a November 4, 2010 presolicitation notice states. “The future system will have to counter adversaries equipped with next generation advanced electronic attack, sophisticated integrated air defense systems, passive detection, integrated self-protection, directed energy weapons, and cyber attack capabilities. It must be able to operate in the anti-access/area-denial environment that will exist in the 2030–50 timeframe.”[5][6] wiki
