How does the Tejas compare with its peers F-16, JF-17, J-10, Gripen

[@subhadeeppaul1349]

This is a very good comparison. I've been studying LCA since years and people don't understand how capable the aircraft is for India.
Few more things: the Ferry range of Tejas is 1700+ km with 2 Drop tanks.
With 2 Drop tanks and 4 A2A missiles (2 Astra + 2 Python 5) the endurance should be about 1:45 - 2 Hours.
The biggest thing, Tejas has 90% availability when operated from forward air bases.

If the requirement is to eat directly, I'll use orange and if the requiremnt is to add taste, I'll use lemon.
But if the requirement is only to extract Vitamin C, then I can use either of orange and lemon. Tejas can perform the same role in both the theaters within the same role envelope defined by its capabilities and limitations.
That is why it is gradually becoming the mainstay or the main workhorse - something which can be deployed in any theatre.
With Mk1A and Mk2 the envelope will only grow bigger.
After TEDBF is rolled out there are high possibilities that IAF might go for an AF variant of that - which will take far less time that AMCA to be completely ready.

[@giridharkatikapalli9894]

You have not been attentive - combat radius is 500KM, flying range is 3000km. So, when the fighter goes out on a war mission assuming its about 1000-1200 km from take off it is expected to engage in fighting 300-500 km area, so that fuel for about 1200 km is left for return. Flight being lighter it can fly longer and higher. ( due to fuel consumption ( used up) and weapons unloaded. So, flying non-stop to dubai which is 1400km is EASY. WITHOUT WEAPONS it will fly longer distance than with weapons. THE FERRY RANGE IS 3000KM see video time of 2:47 .
We need to listen and read things carefully and repeatedly to NOT TO MISUNDERSTAND. HOPE YOU GET IT.

With all due respect to channel, I don't think WVR combat will become obsolete anytime soon which is why modern aircraft designs such as the F-22, J-20, J-10, Rafale, Eurofighter, Gripen etc, still factor in high T/W ratio, tight turn capabilities, high AOA and so on. Parameters that play a crucial role in dogfight scenarios and WVR combat. Success in BVR engagements boils down to radar, stealth profile and missile effectiveness which can be easily countered if the opposing aircraft is equally capable, if not more. You need to fire multiple missiles at varying conditions to increase kill probability ratio. And if you still don't succeed, your aircraft will either need to fall back or enter the WVR engagement zone.

What Nonsense aircraft just liike Maruti 800/Alto small,economical, unsafe,lightweight ... as Shiv said cannot carry enough weapons and sensors. No capabilities. Our pilots deserve the best while PM N.modi is very selective about his safety and security in planes. Shameless government spending on itself and not on defence. Israel has capabilities that india cannot even dream. Very sad and disappointed.

10:49 this graph doesn’t matter because all of these jets (except j-20) will carry armaments on its wings and will hamper the RCS. Saying the Tejas is better than the J-20 in RCS is quite funny tbh.

The comparison is for sake of fun only 😂

Hi Sire, an interesting video would be - Why did India prioritize missile development over engine over last 2 decades. Please add factors like cost, technology restrictions, testing, complexity etc.
