Nope, Tejas to be honest is a substandard fighter jet in today's world. Your air-force is now reluctantly accepting some orders after huge pressure by your new government. Truth is that if they had a choice, they won't choose to induct this fighter into their arsenal,
they will rather have even Sweden's Gripen than this substandard fighter.
However, i do agree that its at least a good first step for India,
since you have never before produced a fighter jet ingeniously in your entire history. SO ITS STILL A GOOD FIRST STEP/TRY.
