HAL ADA Tejas (LCA) with Litening Pod Test Flight

[shumayelahmed]

LCA is a mig21++ aircraft, NOT fourth generation, NOT all weather, NOT what we want: IAF chief.

LCA is a multirole air superiority 4.5th gen fighter: HAL, indian media and indians

LOL, go figure.

[Apollo13143]

@shumayelahmed lol.....u figure, IAF still wants it why ? coz mig 21++ is much better than the chini copy chengdu f-7 which the paki air farce has. By the way, except for 10-15 block 52 f-16, all other planes which the paki air farce has are just dumb, just for target practice.

[shumayelahmed]

@Apollo13143 let's keep the big words to confrontation, shall we eh? we'll see who's who. but just to tell you IAF doesn't want that crap, its imposed on it. why don't you ask your air chief ? lol. dude gimme a break, india has yet to make a basic trainer LOL. remember the case of pathetic deepak with parachute recovery - even that was taken from BRS aerospace? you cant make an effin balloon and you wana talk of fighter? LOL..what a schmuck you must be.

[Apollo13143]

@shumayelahmed lol....when did IAF say it does not want it? Might be your lahori logic taught in lahori madrassa. All he said was it is Mig21++ fighter, still not 4th gen. Can't make a trainer, can't make a balloon, lol, go check abt fighter hf-24 marut. And balloons of all kinds are flown by ISRO. Want to know paki pindigenous technology see this: watch?v=cwCapCpDkjQ , the first paki pindigenous helicopter.....that is where u guys are. Stop dreaming.

[AmericanRaptor1]

LCA is underdevelopment from more than two decades since its conception; the LCA has yet to reach production status. Instead, it continues to perform endless flight tests and most of these tests were also failed. Difficulties with its flight controls & power plant (kaveri engine) are still there and the worst of which was the collapse of the engine during high-altitude tests.In normal circumstances this would be considered a failed project.

[INSAS92]

@AmericanRaptor1 F-22 was underdevelopment for two decades as well

[flanker35su]

LCA has some major problems as it seems now, the most important one being a lack of thrust, the testflights have only reached M1.2 and 4Gs, not exactly impressive for a multi-role fighter. The Indians don´t know which engine to fit in the LCA since their "indigenous" Kaveri-engine is years from working, if it will work at all. Jet-engine companies from both Russia and France have trying to fix it, but it seems to be at a dead end.Almost a failed Project.

[Askywarrior]

Poor planning, over-optimistic timelines and a lack of coordination with the Armed Forces led to cost and time overruns of major defence projects taken up by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). In all of the major projects — LCA, Arjun Tank, Kaveri engine and the Akash Surface to Air Missile — have the problems of “over-optimism” and poor planning.

Now india wants to induct LCA as soon as possible in IAF even with its limited capability and defects just to save its FACE.

[FGFAPilot]

@TheBharath2010 I'm with you bro 

[TheBharath2010]

Tejas rules POrkies, JUnk fighter has no avionics, no radar, slow turning rate, BAD design and the ugliest plane ever built. It has no composites and weapons. Good for pathans to take it on their donkeys to sell it in karachi scrap yard. 100 rupees a kilo, porkies will kill each other! hahahha, TIN BOX SHAME SHAME

[TheBharath2010]

@TheBharath2010

Just to make it funny, for sunnis punjabi it is 100 rupees a kilo, shias/pathans 150 rupees a kilo. We love pathans and Iranians!

[Askywarrior]

India’s indigenous Tejas is plane under perpetual development. This “plane” has had the longest development cycle of any train, plane or automobile in the history of world. After a decade of false starts, abject failures, the Tejas remains a joke among the engineers, journalists and scientists in the aviation industry.

[bestfighterpilot]

@Askywarrior LCA is from the design -dassault, FBW-Lockheed,Radar-Israel, to everything is dependent on foriegn assistance. For all the assistance provided by aerospace gaints--Dassault, BAE to Lockheed Martin, LCA still will be going back to drawing boards. India’s attempt at indigenous production of weapons has been a colossal failure the likes of which do not exist in the annals of military history. I wonder how long will it take for the LCA probably another decade?

Almost a failed project.

[ghumanharj]

@bestfighterpilot you must be a fucking Paki making such stupid comments.

[INSAS92]

@bestfighterpilot Dude Try to make a aircraft from scratch with no experience and massive technological sanctions. It take u guys 5 decades to make a aircraft as advance as LCA

[TheBharath2010]

The litening pod takes porkies on their donkeys and kill them, hahahha, funny. Porkies with their ugly but TIN BOX junk fighter-17, haha, have nothing to show. That thing has no complete fly by wire, has no composites, has not been weapons tested, cannot climb, cannot go beyond mach 1.5, cannot with stand beyond 6.5 g, That is a stupid plane, DOLLAR TOY, porkies can fly, but TEJAS WILL BRING IT DOWN!

[TheBharath2010]

Tejas rules porkies skies alllllllllll the time

[ImFlyingEagle]

LCA has taken 25 years for its development and it still not ready to induct. The Tejas was supposed to have replaced the Mig 21s, MiG23s and MiG27s 20 years ago. The Tejas has yet to reach production status.Instead, it continues to perform endless flight tests and most of those are failed. Difficulties with flight controls & power plant continues to be plagued with technical difficulties, the worst of which was the collapse of the engine during high-altitude tests.

[TheBharath2010]

@ImFlyingEagle

The jealous porkies here hahaha, come again, talk non sense, look at their TIN BOX JF-17 feel sorry for themselves, cry and comment against Tejas. Look at JF-17, my god, how ugly it is, chinese gave a dollar toy to porkies, and said, "here, take-out is ready, it comes with fortune cookies", porkies took it, saw it, and went Darnnnnnnnnnnnnnn, chinese, this is SHIT plane.

[Howard0Hughes]

@ImFlyingEagle India’s attempt at indigenous production of weapons has been a colossal failure the likes of which do not exist in the annals of military history. India’s failed LCA is the stuff made for jokes around military headquarters from Brussells to Moscow to Beijing to Washington. India has been trying to produce a plane called the LCA. After a decade of design, Delhi has failed to produce a fully operational plane. The project is years away from its completion.

[bestfighterpilot]

@ImFlyingEagle Though the HAL says that it can reach Mach 2; the top speed of Tejas recorded till date is only Mach 1.3. It sounds nice, but is dead slow to dodge an incoming missile flying at speed of nearly Mach 4. The average speeds of other 4.5 generation aircraft are above Mach 2.2. So, if the aircraft runs out of ammunition during a combat, it has no way to escape.

[flanker35su]

I would say that LCA was a flawed project in its early years however due to vast spending on Indians point of view, they couldn't afford to scrap it hence the reason the project is still crippling forward today. Nevertheless, the JF-17 is an infant compared to the LCA and I would say more successful in that the short time compared to the LCA it has achieved much more and we have seen more test flights of the JF-17 than the number of photos of the LCA.

[khanf7pg]

India is one of the only major countries of the world that has been been unable to design and manufacture its own planes, tanks and missiles that work. The Key word is “work’. India has struggled for over two decades in designing the Tejas and it is not close to flight trials. The LCA, the Arjun, Trishul, and other missiles are the same failed stories. It purchased hundreds of Flying Coffins which it could neither maintain nor fly.

[chnasirnazir]

India is just making its false claims for LCA in order to influence the the world due to the failure of LCA. LCA will be outdated by the time it comes out in full production and India induct it into the services completely by 2015. Actually its already outdated. What a waste of time and money. I can’t figure out India when it comes to projects like Arjun and LCA. The Arjun-project started in 1972 and now almost 40 years later all they have to show for are prototypes, same story with LCA.

[Askywarrior]

Indians cant get out of thier superiority complex NEWS FLASH LCA (last chance aircraft) is the longest project in aviation history not even raptor took this much time and LCA is not even inducted yet It cant even take off in rain as shown in 2009 in an airshow Lets leave all the BS aside but s it cant even replace the flying coffins IAF itself has no confidence in the project and is till not inducting it although it said that it wud ground Mig-21 in the 1990's LOL

[Askywarrior]

a gift to all LCA fans

[TheWarriorsMr]

@Askywarrior It's another arjun, just for parade...... and to eat resources. 

[khanf7pg]

the proud of indian - LCA ... the LAST CHANCE AIRCRAFT.

[fighterpilot65]

@khanf7pg 100% right words used by you.... it deserve to be called last chance coz indian govt. has said that this junk will not be availble before 2015. so a real LAST CHANCE AIRCRAFT. lolz

[bhartha2007]

@fighterpilot65

100%, porki hear calls 100%, hey asshole, count 100 let me see how much time you take. Bitch, camel piss drinking fuck head, that TIN box you have assembled from an already 90% assembled aircraft, you feel you have developed an aircraft. Hey, biiiiiiiiiiiiiitch, here me loud, TEJAS WILL RUIN YOUR COUNTRY and rob your wealth! hahahha. Now float in that floods, and listen, float good, perhaps you will find a higher place where there are only donkeys who can breed your women, hahha

[bestfighterpilot]

@fighterpilot65

1- LCA cant even pull more than 17 degrees AOA meaning it has a limited angle of attack JF-17 can pull the same amount as a F-16.

2- LCA isn't even for all weathers recently in an air show in India in 2009 LCA wasn't able to take off in rain.

3- Its too costly meaning its no longer a replacement for IAF’s flying coffins.

4- its been 27 years and u only have produced 6 prototypes (the longest aviation project in history)

[TheWarriorsMr]

@bestfighterpilot It is a biggest flop in the history of aviation due to its too long production period and very high cost. even now IAF is avoiding to induct it.

[bhartha2007]

@TheWarriorsMr

2 porkies joing hands here. Does not matter what you say porki, LCA will be the dealth call for you all. Floods have killed you, Pathans whom you are ignoring are killing you, we will fuck you too, hahaha. WIth that TIN box called JF-17, you can not even fight somalia, let alone mighty INDIA, hahahah, Porno porkies, camel piss drinking fuck heads!

[bhartha2007]

@TheWarriorsMr

Haha, the biggest flop would be that TIN box flying with no radar n weapons nor avionics, it can fly but we will bring it down, hahah, TEJAS will gee fully. hahaha. The biggest FLOP is the chinese J-10 which has crashed 4 times already, its avionics and fly by wire is good for dud, hahahhaha, porki, lift your head, yaaak thu, now wipe your face!

Are bhai, let porkis bark, purani aadat hai, ye pusslims bhool gaye ki jab India ne haga to porkistan bana, ab yaar hagne ke baad goo to badboo maregana?? isli liye porkistan ayesa hai, iska ek hi ilaaj, flush the goo and there will be no smell.

[centigram1]

@greatedude absolutely right buddy!!!! jai hind!!!!

[kamasutrair]

india and pakistan are cousins.should we fight.

[BengalG3]

Pakistan and India should not fight,it will benefit both our nation if we dont hate each other...

[greatedude]

porkis cannot make a condom without chinas help leave alone aircrafts

[INSAS92]

@greatedude True

[madarchot]

Yes we are producing waste and the IAF sucks and the Indian army sucks etc etc. We want all you pakis to think like this.

[Anmol34]

You are Unfit to talk about India.

You are no one to criticize our achievements so just get the fuck out of here.

[tommyphilip2000]

Our lolzz you make fun of our achievements when we have made Dhruv,LCA and FGFA BRAHMOS when you only have joint ventures and nothing indigenous what a load of shit man....

And oh yeah thanks a lot to Jinnah for the Failure called Pakistan ;-)

[tommyphilip2000]

Hahah LMAO at you comment on Dhruv being a failure...abey oye dakkan....do you know how many operators are there for the HAL Dhruv let me name all of them here Indian Army Indian Air Force Indian Navy Nepalese Army Air Service Ecuadorian Air Force Bolivian Air Force Turkish Armed Forces Surinamese National Army LCA is a collosol failure then so is your Entire country an big failure... And FGFA is light years in the future?? Atleast we will be having a 5th gen Air Craft wtf do you have??

[tommyphilip2000]

Fuck porkis lolzz

[USAF932]

i have a really fun video

[shudra14]

when did americans favour us,what kind of technology has been transferred by them to us,they are not even considering to transfer f 18 radar tech,and want us to sign end user agreement.

[sat002]

we are not ready to thrust americans. They impose sanctiosn when ever they wish, so better stick to russian or some french companies for purchase

[DEVILSEYE99]

dude i hope our govt will choose refale over mig 35.

[sat002]

i too hope the same, not only we gets full TOT, they ready to fit kaveri engine with M-88 -3 schema core in rafale which produce a dry thrust of 60KN and after burn of 90KN, which can surely make the rafale super cruise like typoon.

[ltf509]

u should buy some real planes from us

[tomtomttom]

If India is going to buy planes it is better to buy American or Russian. They are much better than French.

[ltf509]

Sorry man

i mean from us

us=USA！ By the way！Mate！i m in France，but i m not french！

[DEVILSEYE99]

dude buying french planes will help us alot with other ways like

1) full tot

2) they r ready to help us in making indeginous nuclear submarines

3) they r ready to help us in kaveri engine

4) u can trust them more then americans and russians

[tomtomttom]

At the end, India should be building its own planes. Take the French, the American, Russian, British, and ect. planes and use them with their own designs. A country the size of India should be coming up with its own designs and sell them to the world. Every power in the world had problems when they first started their jet programs. The number of test pilots the US and Russia lost was 10 times more than India. And we don't even know the number of Chinese test pilots died. And we will never know.

[tomtomttom]

India will go through its troubles in developing its own planes, but out of developing it, it will become a more independent and successful country. It is a process a country must go through to become a regional and world power. And don't listen to the haters. They just don't want India to become independent, they are just jealous.

[tomtomttom]

We should also look at the features of the LCA. It is one of the smallest fighters and from what I heard, given thrust vectoring capability. Making LCA one of the most effective fighters in the world. If all goes well, it will also get one of the best radar systems as well. It practically can maneuver like a missile. As an American, I have to respect the Indians for taking on such an amazing project.

[rohitkumarindia]

i think you r rite ,

but soviet(russia) also helped india a lot , but now they'r not focusing on it rather selling equipments on high price like submarine , and india also worked on russia yakhont missile (which was like a failed soviet cruise missile) a succesful and the fastest cruise missile in the world

[DEVILSEYE99]

i don't think we can trust the russian as much as we trusted them during soviet era.

1)admiral ghoskov-AC CARIER deal

2)rd 93-engine were supplied to pakistan for jf 17

[rohitkumarindia]

well, russia is independent to take their decisions of supplying JF-17 engine

but ya you said absolutely rite , we can't trust more on russia as india trusted on soviet , LCA-TEJAS is a complete indegenious aircraft of india with only engine in collaboration with french , france also licensed to make scorpene submarine fully in india

[DEVILSEYE99]

if they can supply engine to pakistan then we can also reply back by awarding mrca contract to some other company.its not just about money in international politics and i think its high time russia has to realise that.

[rohitkumarindia]

hm..................

u r rite ......

but sorry for this late reply

tell me one thing , now lca-tejas is ready to be in production , but still air force is not confirm on tejas they r only doing testing on tejas , so when will we see tejas flying for air force , bcoz i have seen many videos pakistanis and chinks showing every indian indegenious equipment fail

[yourdeadin]

LOL the video quality could not have been better.....move blu ray and hd dvd....lca is here !!!!!!

No offence ment

[yourdeadin]

2020

MiG 35....Mig 29....Su 30 MKI ....Su Pak fa and LCA.......Thats a impressive list i must say

[dalsinsid]

come on man you are forgetting MCA, 5th gen and compareable to F-35

[Sps2006]

i doubt those wil be inducted in 2020 more like 2025

[kulappan]

rather dissapointed with this video.the quality is too poor.

[fonia2]

If they are planning to sell this to anyone, i would suggest hiring a proper team that can make better vids and get some good old propaganda in the air, cause this is just too 1980s.

I mean seriously, lame a@@ home vid stuff.

[me4gals]

Errr...No Offense Pal..but I doubt this is an official advertising video mean for potential customers. I mean yeah the video quality cud have been better, but this is just a home video, someone who was there at that time with a cellular phone *just an educated guess* and recorded it to share with us xD...

[saptarishi3186]

really a nice stuff lca rocks

it will be interesting to see lca in iaf colours with litening 3, aesa mmr, 3D TVC ,astra and python 5,

gud luck tejas
