India’s Stealth Fighter will be Superior to China’s J-20 and Russia’s PAK FA T-50; will also Launch BrahMos: Chinese Media

India’s new fifth generation stealth fighter will be superior in key aspects to Russia’s PAK FA T-50 from which it’s derived, and will also have the added advantage of being able to fire the newest iteration of the fearsome BrahMos cruise missile, the BrahMos NG.

And as the PAK FA is already superior to China’s Chengdu J-20 low observable fighter, this means the Indian stealth jet will also be superior to the J-20.

Indian media reports said India’s as yet unnamed stealth fighter will include a total of 43 improvements over the PAK FA T-50, making it superior in many key aspects to the Russian fighter, of which only six have been produced because they cost over $100 million apiece.

That’s far too expensive for a battered Russian economy still crippled by Western sanctions triggered by Russia’s illegal annexation of the Crimea in 2014.

The Indian stealth fighter will be superior in stealth, supercruise, advanced sensors, networking and combat avionics to PAK FA.

Under a co-development deal, India will develop one prototype while Russia will develop another. The Indian version will be a two-seat fighter manned by a pilot and a Weapon Systems Operator. The Russian version will be a traditional single seat stealth fighter like the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II.

India wants its indigenous stealth fighter jet to become operational with the Indian Air Force before 2025. It plans to build as many as 127 stealth fighters.

India’s Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) project will be developed and produced by the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) at its facility in Nashik at an estimated cost of $25 billion.

“The agreement has been completed on our end; we are ready to sign it. It is now down to the Indian side. There are some formalities to figure out, but I think it will be signed by the end of this year,” said Sergei Chemezov, CEO of Russian weapons maker Rostech Corporation.

Chemzov noted the project “will produce a state of the art fighter jet, and it will be the result of the work on Russia’s most modern technology done by both Russian and Indian engineers. As fifth generation, it means fifth generation speed, ballistics and military equipment, avionics and stealth capabilities among other qualities.”

A significant advantage to the Indian stealth fighter will be its ability to loft and launch BrahMos-NG (Next Generation), a lighter, smaller but deadlier version of the original BrahMos built to destroy enemy warships.

Also called mini-BrahMos, this new version will be 50 percent lighter than the original version but will be just as fast at Mach 3.5 (4,300 km/h). Expected to become operational after 2018, BrahMos-NG will have a far smaller radar cross section or RCS than its predecessor, making it far more difficult to locate and destroy.

BrahMos-NG will arm the Indian Air Force’s Sukhoi Su-30MKI air superiority fighter; Mikoyan MiG-29K carrier-based multirole fighter; HAL Tejas Light Attack Fighter for land and carrier use and the Dassault Rafale multirole fighter, of which 36 have been purchased by India.

The SU-30MKI will be able to carry three BrahMos-NGs while the other combat aircraft will carry one each. It’s not known how many BrahMos-NGs India’s new stealth fighter will carry.

  1. You are dreaming. It took you guys 30 years to get the LCA into service and your navy just turned it down and decided to import the fighters from Sweden or the USA. You don't even have a prototype any wear nearing completion. If everything went EXACTLY as planned, it would take at least 7 years from prototype flight to actually fielding it's first regiment. We are in 2017 right now, by the time the first units enter service, it will be 2024, there's no way you are building over 100+ aircrafts in 1 year to have over 127 stealth fighters by 2025. This is assuming everything goes EXACTLY as planned, but as your LCA projects shows, it took you guys 30 years, I highly doubt you can field a stealth fighter in 7 years. Good luck, India will lose any war it fights with China.
