Bro dont even look at AMCA now, Its still a paper plane. We dont evn know what shape it will take in future, coz we dont even know what techs will go to it.With so many billions to be spent on PAK-FA and FGFA, I am wondering if AMCA will get anything at all.

Lets forget that and enjoy the MRCA, LCA2 and FGFA who look promising at the moment.
Brother, I have a lot of hopes from the AMCA project, I feel India should undertake this project at any cost.
In the long run, an indigenous 5th gen project will be beneficial to our defense industry as well.

by the end of the decade, the IAF would hopefully have an inventory of just five fighter types: the upgraded Su-30MKI (272), the MMRCA (126), the PAK FA/Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (200-250), the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (100)and the Tejas MK-II (150-200).


Here is the latest statement from the IAF chief mentioning AMCA in the future force matrix of IAF.
Looks like the IAF is going to back the AMCA project big time!![]()
Hope isnt a bad thing and we all hope that one day AMCA will take on to the skies in IAF colors.Brother, I have a lot of hopes from the AMCA project, I feel India should undertake this project at any cost.

Accept for the MKI and MMRCA, all other numbers as given in the link looks unrealistic to be possible by the end of the decade, but lets see on how things turn up.
If the AMCA designs that were making the rounds in the internet some time back are any where close to reality, then the AMCA is one heck of a design, would be a brilliant achievement for the Indian aerospace industry if we succeed with this one.
I think the IAF chief only mentioned the types in his conferance; the numbers beside the types were "added" by our enterprising journalist friend! There is no way we can have those numbers by 2020.
About the AMCA, the designs on the net are indeed breathtaking. It will be a dream to watch it fly!
