Default Re: Indian Air Force Tejas

The Tejas single-seat, single-engine, lightweight, high-agility supersonic fighter aircraft has entered into service with the Indian Air Force (IAF) in July 2016.

Tejas had flown more than 3,000 test flights up to speeds of Mach 1.4.

The aircraft's design and development programme was led by the Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) of the Indian Department of Defence, with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL).

Tejas conceptual design flight trials
It is the smallest, lightweight, multirole, single-engine tactical fighter aircraft in the world.

The design of a carrier-borne Tejas in single-seat and two-seat versions, including a modified nose, strengthened landing gear and an arrestor hook, was granted approval in 1999. This has retractable canards and adjustable vortex control.

Sensors and radar
Electronics Research and Development Establishment and HAL have jointly developed the aircraft's multimode radar.

The radar has multiple target search and track-while-scan and ground-mapping modes of operation.

It includes pulse Doppler radar with Doppler beam shaping, moving target indication and look-up / look-down capability.
