Скачать или смотреть IAF Crippling, Is Tejas Project Shutting Down? || Islamabad Files

In this programme, Islamabad Files get into the harsh realities of India's Indigenous Fighter Jets production gamble, that over the years failed to provide jets to it's airforce and turned into nightmare. India launched the LCA Tejas project in 1983, yet after four decades it remains plagued by delays, limited production, operational restrictions, and serious technical flaws. In contrast, Pakistan’s JF-17 Thunder — launched a decade later — has evolved into a combat-proven, mass-produced, and export-worthy fighter jet.

Islamabad Files also done in-depth analysis and compares Tejas and JF-17 Thunder across production timelines, operational clearances, combat records, flying hours, safety, technology integration, and indigenous claims. From IOC vs FOC controversies to crashes, limited BVR capability, and internal issues within India’s defence ecosystem — the reality behind Tejas is far from official narratives.

Meanwhile, Islamabad Files also analyse JF-17 Thunder has replaced legacy fleets of F-7,F-7PG, and Mirages, participated in real combat operations including Ops Swift Retort and Marka-e-Haq, and Ops Bunyanum Marsoos, neutralized advanced air defence systems, and continues to gain international customers.
