Modifying RF missile to IIR requires time and need all test done.
A BVR also need integration will radar to provide mid course guidance, so it's complicated .
If we start now, we can get them in service only around 2031.

Imo, the seeker algos can be derived from the work already done for ASAT/BMD and Nag, even DCMAWS for that matter. But the IAF is taking its time.
They have recently acquired more R-27TEs to replace older stocks of that missile so Astra IR may not be a priority atm.
Faaz seems to have an air inlet.
I declare this RAM jet missile same as Meteor.
This is AI enhanced screenshot from the video.
Rear view.
Can be a cable runner , too big for that

I hope this is sarcasm .
Jokes aside , IT DOES NOT HAVE AN INLET . RAMJETS ARE STILL A VERY NICHE AND HARD TECH FOR US .
The tab at the back is possibly an antenna for Comms/Datalink like this one , Also the image is AI enhanced so..
Now go and see the original video(not AI enhanced ) and compare side of "indigenous" faaz and PL-12AE. Specially a thin rectangular thing on PL12.
Don't wanna shame, but why did not you actually searched for it.
Like how air intake missile works, how ramjet intakes work, aerodynamic around it.
Offtopic but IAF never claimed that no aircraft was lost. They said that "all pilot involved in op sindoor are safe"
As a fellow defence enthusiast i would bot recommend you to be active in PDF at all.
That is a shame on a forum. In that forum, almost none do research on their own.
People there Just spit whatever comes to mouth, without ever thinking of the rationality of that statement
Like oscar said that PAF/PA has neutralized atleast 50% of brahmos so that all flew to Afghanistan which is currently impossible(becauseof INS), china and usa can not even do that to a quad copter with old INS let alone a mach 2.5 missile with extremely advance INS.
Don't wanna involve op sindoor, but just a friendly remainder that talking to prople of PDF will only decrease the thinking ability.
That forum is just a chai-buscuit forum for old people and not actually a defence forum.

There is a reason majority of young members like me dont use it after a year or so . PDF doesnt have quality content anymore , it used to but majority of the good members left after the initial site went down .Offtopic but IAF never claimed that no aircraft was lost.

, majority of the members are now uncles who dont have anything to do (legit ask their ages and you will know) .
"chai-buscuit forum for old people and not actually a defence forum."
We can say this about every other Brown forum tbh . Trolling and spewing racist BS is a norm .
I made an account here cuz it had more technical information tho this forum still has members who ten to show thier insecurities and arrogance . Kher
Yes, the cable runners are there on almost all missiles. But the one on FAAZ is too big .
Here's a side view
However upon looking further and as suggested by some over here . Protruding cable runner and that continuing to the back is also the situation on AIM 120,and thats not a RAM jet.
Shut up you... i am writing this comment while having my chai biscuits. I am 50 plus.
Thats a racist comment from you. My chai biscuits are well offended.

Thats exactly why I came here. Good example you showed there
Ok...now I don't think this is an air intake. A rather large cable runner.
But I will still pedal the idea on social media. Because why not
Just watch me turning FAAZ into a Meteor competitor
.On a serious note, can anyone identify coms antennas or Proximity fuse on FAAZ ?
Trolling is pretty normal in a forum, go to anyforum from chinease to turkish or americans.
It's bad obviously, but nothing is perfect.
A Trolling and hate between people who fight regularly in a defence forum is obvious as for them it's also very emotional thing.
Specially in india pakistan where divided is extremely ideological (like USA v/s USSR) and not just territorial issues.
Like i learned a thing or two on Other forum about propulsion of ships and subamrines, how important they are and concept of rafting(i only knew little Previously) and how important they are for ASW.
Previously i only used to look at sensor and VLS count of ships but now i also look for propulsion, compartment of zones, noise level, ESM suite, endurance and diving deep into sensor suits.
I Previously used to think that kamorta class corvette is bad, but after learning all this, now kamorta looks more potent than any other ship in IN for ASW.
I also vent out but try not to do on people who have not done anything bad.
And most people here have a prejudice about pakistani thanks to PDF(and obviously an ideological hatered ).
