How did india manage to make the ugliest jet fighter ever designed???
>>65170079Decades of program mismanagement, delays, insane levels of corruption, both graft and nepotism putting retards in key positions because they had a friend or family member in high places.
>>65170127what he said is the symptom.truth nuke is that they are breed to be slaves so innovation is abset from this "people"
>>65170079Hiring the french for jet designs
The West abandoned arranged marriage in the 19th Century, if the writer of Jane Austen is to be believed, and went from flying planes to the moonwalk in 50 years. India still has arranged marriage throughout every class and caste of society, its not even a relic of tradition among the aristocracy
>>65170079How the fuck do they manage to make anything?!
>>65170079>Took on Dassault for consulting roles in its design (therefore its just a mirage 2000 copycat)>Therefore its more of a French design than purely Indian one>Even the MK2 takes extreme French design philosophy into its airframe (read as: its just a Rafale copycat)
>>65170079 You are incorrect this jet is far uglier.
>>65170079because theyre indian
>>65170079They are ugly, corrupt and incompetent nation. So its fitting that they built a jet that reflects the reality. So they have a jet that is ugly, built and designed by nepojeets that doesn't meet its requirements and is massively behind schedule. HAL Tejas is India in form of a jet.
>>65170174>India still has arranged marriage throughout every class and caste of society, its not even a relic of tradition among the aristocracySomething like 90% of Indian marriages are arranged.
>>65170079Why does the surface finish look like a BB that's seen action in the Pacific?
>>65170079That's not the SU-22.
>>65171701Shut up, the su-22 has got a little bit of everything and looks good doing it
>>65170196>Saar india gud china bad
>>65171918>jeetshit bad so chinkshit must be good
Relevant to this thread.
>>65171923Chinkshit is miles better than Jeetshit that isn't even a debate
I only like this plane because its loadouts fit my autistic tiny carrier scenario in CMO.
God Jesus forgive me of my sins for I think this jet actually looks cool
>>65172525>>65172525You're gonna love the Mirage 2000-9 then. Unlike the Tejas, the Mirage 2000-9 is actually a great fighter. A shame that the frogs were too goddamned retarded and shut down the production lines instead of purchasing enough to have 200 of them on their fleet.
>>65170079That photo doesn't do it justice.It looks like a Dorito.
>>65172561>That photo doesn't do it justice.As in, do its ugliness justice.You have to have wonder how a country with supposedly decent engineering universities (IIT) produced such a monstrosity.
>>65172561Curry Masala flavor
>>65172525You'd really love current French designs than
>>65172561>fixed external refueling probeWhat year is this?
>>65172536I think it's got something to do with me loving chunky airplanes. My favorite airplane is the F-4 Phantom, and that thing is the definition of thicc
>>65172655The Phantom truly was a beaut. I fucking loved that thing, an absolute Chad fighter, despite how bad the USAF's pilots were during the Vietnam war.
Anybody have the webm of the Tejas crash that happened around the same time as the J-10/Rafale kill?
>>65172704>despite how bad the USAF's pilots were during the Vietnam warDid they just invest so much into nukes that they gave up on fighter training?
Do jeets really keep this shit on their computers
>>65172737what was it
>>65172566>supposedly decent engineering universitiescome on now, they're shit and you should know it. everything in india sucks ass.
>>65172755bbc
>>65172755a collage of white pornstars doing IR stuff.
>>65172764>>65172765of course a jeet would post that, so predictable
>>65172732They were just not used the right way. Military officers constantly make this mistake. I was on a stryker unit and our leadership tried to use them like tanks during exercises and got all of them killed. In Vietnam they actually got killed because it wasn't an exercise. They were just set up for failure, probably good pilots.
>>65172755Nig porn. He posted it over multiple threads. I'm assuming a troll, or someone who's convinced they're addicted to the website and are doing a suicide by cop sort of thing here
>>65170079Have you ever seen an indian?
>>65172773>They were just set up for failureSeems like our entire act in Vietnam did that to us. Sucks because that was a waste of a lot of trained pilots and good planes. I guess our air-to-air rockets weren't the most reliable at the beginning either
>>65170079That would be the Draken.
>>65172824Swedish jets always look like they were designed by an engineer who'd never seen a plane before
>>65172732It was a bunch problems, but it all boils down to dogshit bad training and absurd rules of engagement such as having to visually ID the enemy before engaging it with missiles.
>>65172895>such as having to visually ID the enemy before engaging it with missiles.Cool, so by the time you're allowed to engage the enemy it's halfway too late.How to lose wars 101 or some shit, it's like the war was led by corporate HR
>>65172901It was some truly mindboggling shit. All straight from McNamara's DoD.
