Lack of expertise in the foreign machine, spare parts, limited numbers and can't mass produce from home at will.

It is high time they do something about IJT and if they cannot bring out a decent IJT by next next year end HAL would miss another bus.I dont know having air marshal Tyagi as chief of HAL would make any difference. Why they want to do each and everything and fail . Why cant they prioritize the project work first and perform in with a fixed deadline and subcontract subsystem to private companies and just do the assembly and get the product tested and with the feedback modify the project.There is lot of talent at HAL and i feel good management skills and planed integration is required to optimize the resources.<br /><br />TIMBAKTOOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-81590545567364646742012-05-24T22:40:11.789+05:302012-05-24T22:40:11.789+05:30If we can make a 4+ generation fighter aircraft LC...If we can make a 4+ generation fighter aircraft LCA Tejas.
