You mean his fantasy.
A fighter with limited flight performance, limited weapon load capability, limited EW capability and possibly not even a gun is suppose to be the 2nd best A2A fighter in IAFs fleet??? India is doomedBecause just as IN later, the primary goal of LCA / NLCA programmes were, to build up indigenous infrastructure, as well as design and development experience. Also both started out with TDs for that reason too, while both would have met the operational requirements only in the MK2 version.
IAF was generous enough to make multiple concessions in all areas, to keep the programme alive, while IN rejected it, but ADAs failure to meet even basics, is what is hampering with LCA, from the start till today.

Here is a Dose of Reality for you
HAL is going to screw up the MK 1 A also

How is flight performance limited ?
Str , itr or AoA ?
This was already well-known, that the LCA doesn't have the endurance necessary. Basic range is a little bit higher than the Mig-29A and the Bison. Ferry range depends on how much fuel is allowed with weapons.
The cost is a worrying factor.

Do we have a Plan B in case MK 1 A project is a failure
MK 2 is very far away
The complete Radio Silence , Not even Random bits of information by ADA on the MK 1 A is simply disappointing to say the least ( Pun unintended
)

We can safely conclude that MK 1 A is

If Modi does not come back in May
Tejas MK 1 A is Finished
Congress has said it will get HAL to make Rafales
So IAF happy , HAL very happy since it gets a big cash cow for 20 years
ADA can go back to making paper planes like AMCA
Anyway with massive spending on things like Farm loan waivers , there will be No
Money for Tejas and AMCA

Mk1A is the Plan B.
But more Rafales will become more important.
The IAF's demand for greater endurance is quite unreasonable though. It still has way more than the Mig-21 and Mig-29S, and the LCA is capable of taking over their duties, which will free up the Mig-29UPG for more important missions.
In this case (HAL producing Rafale), what about Reliance? some sub assemblies for HAL ?
I'm looking forward to the air show in Malaysia, hopefully JF-17 and LCA go head to head.
More than Malaysia , it is Aero India 2019
Which will tell us about the prospects of
MK 1 A
Whether it was And Whether it is Feasible and Doable , they must come out with progress report
Or did ADA and HAL took us for a ride
MK 1 A was sanctioned in 2016 , three years later there should be some definitive progress
If Congress wins , Dassault would be asked to break up with Reliance
And Dassault would also be told to hammer out a Joint Venture with HAL, for making more Rafales in India
Dassault can easily ask and get Management Control in a JV
There has been progress. The IAF's main problem is just HAL's cost and delivery schedule, not the aircraft itself.
