After adjusting pixels of available diagrams of TEDBF & AMCA to their dimensions & comparing, we found that their fuselage height is almost same; span & cross section area values are nearby, AMCA's belly spans more for IWB. The overlay of AMCA's IWB outline shows that TEDBF can be tweaked...

Others can keep their opinion based on jets with IFRP like F-35, Su-57, etc, but IM🧅 apart from EOTS, i would vouch for a clean shaved cheek like F-22 with spine receptacle, no ladder, one piece canopy w/o arc, TacIRST like multi-function sensor, all these would reduce RCS & improve pilot...

> Before writing further on reducing pilot life risk by 5+gen TEDBF, i collected many points & divided them into 2 groups depending upon inclination more to 4gen or 5gen. So, later in another post i'ld put the 5gen inclined points. > 1st, for 4gen lovers i would like to do an approximate scaled...

IDK how i forgot this post 1 year back. We noticed as per available diagrams & official dimensions that AMCA & TEDBF have identical span, dimensions, cross section at some places, like height from belly to cockpit ceiling looks almost same. This means if AMCA can have IWB so can TEDBF. For...

Truth will be revealed eventualy but for now any confirmed/official source? There are many other pics from different angles which people might be knowing & it doesn't look that pods are asymmetrical, but the 2 pods are indeed different, left is EO, right is non-EO, which is mentioned in Sandboxx...

In F-22 MLUs, 1 of the stealthy sensor pod looks EO & other like EW. So the fuselage acts as a blindspot, can't look the other side. Then how will F-22 have spherical coverage? Will 1 group of few data-linked F-22s do the IRST for other clean config F-22s? Below i'm assuming that the IRST...

Need to make & fly full scale prototype like S-70 that too autonomously with AI a.s.a.p.⏰⏳ Wars happen suddenly. ⚠️🚨

Recently RTX (Raytheon) put a small video on their website which showcases a CGI of F-47 NGAD prototype perhaps. (https://www.rtx.com/news/2026/02/18/fast-tracking-the-fighter-jet-engine-of-the-future) Need to scroll down to middle of webpage Screenshots from video- It is difficult to...

The JV engine requirement has been projected around 120-130 KN, probably bcoz some engines have been augmented, like F414 engine of F-18 SH Block-3 has been pushed up to EPE (Enhanced Performance Engine) version with 20% more wet thrust of 117.6 KN from 98 KN. After tabulating engine parameters...

IMHO, as i wrote long back, this is a good learning reference for a new naval stealth jet design to have central IWBs for AGMs. Finally the diagram became reality with Su-57 openning its IWBs in flight showing AGMs & AAMs. Max AG stealth load with 4x 930 Kg Kh-59 Mk2 (subsonic CrM) + 2x 105...

He needs to elaborate more, what exactly GoI/MoD intends. He didn't say that VCE will be imported straight. When GTRE can't make afterburning 4gen engine then either it needs unrestricted R&D money to make 5gen & 6gen engine, OR domestic private consortium should do it, like our own GE, P&W, RR...

There's still time in era of affordable supercomputing, automation, robotics, AI/ML. YF-22 was re-designed in 1987 in just 3 months. so i would expect following changes in AMCA Mk1 itself - > Ladder & canopy arc rail should be removed to reduce RCS. > IFRP replaced by spine receptacle. We can...

Some new graphics render has come out by NG for F/A-XX. It loos like a delta wing, with 2 rudders, only top flat intakes with middle separator. Dark & difficult to see under wing & belly. There seems to be SWB & IWB.

CAUTION - EVERYONE CAN HAVE THEIR OPINION BUT DO NOT COMPARE WITH GHATAK, CATS WARRIOR, ETC. > Few months back in post #331 on page 17 i showed that Astr-1 cannot be staggered & only 4x possible in IWB. > Then a modified Astr-2 with short fin to aid in staggered positions in the IWB which would...

Since 1988 after revealing F-117, B-2 then YF-22/23 it has been now 37 years now into 5gen stealth era. India had IT boom in 1990s. We have much better Supercomputers than Param-2000. We've developed RAS, RAM now. This is the era of AI/ML which were engineering college subjects in 2000s also...

I should have posted this before F-47 announcement when advertisements about the preliminary NGAD design speculations of delta, cropped diamond wings were floating. So Versions 4, 5 related to that. And then V6c like SR-72, Darkstar.;):cool:

Some new poor quality images of TEDBF have emerged. It looks like modified Rafale. Even after IN indicating 5gen TEDBF, AFAIK there is no official response from ADA on it.

Version 3a & 3b with Lambda wing getting popular & nose triangular & double delta.

For AHCA to be naval stealth jet, we should have some size reference. On AMCA thread i showed comparison of AMCA & F-18 SH naval jet in medium class. A naval jet & a heavy class means Su-33 as best current example. A stealth jet & heavy class means F-22 as best current example. Let's compare...

Some people say that heavy class 6gen fighter RFI/RFP might get launched soon. https://idrw.org/6th-generation-fighter-plans-to-follow-while-amca-enters-trial-phase-iaf-official/ https://idrw.org/2040-india-eyes-2040-for-6th-gen-fighter-concept-with-double-amca-range-payload/ From IADN on FB:
