AMCA- The Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft The Indian AMCA- The Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft is an Indian programme to develop a stealth, multirole, air superiority fighter for the Indian Air Force and the Indian Navy which will also include 6th Generation niche technologies.

Some Major InFo-
First flight: 2024–25 (Expected)
Status: Prototype fabrication
Manufacturer: Hindustan Aeronautics Limited
National origin: India
Role: Stealth multirole fighter
Introduction: 2030-2035
The Aircraft seems to be heavily drawn from Tejas……….. Blueprint —



Fuselage of Tejas seems to be enlarged (obvious for a medium combat aircraft) and modified for facilitating twin engines.
Extra fins for aerodynamic designs, which is common in F-35, J-20 and J-31.
Still design can be modified a little to be identical to the F-22.
I conclude, a nice design to absorb or reflect RADAR waves here and there, though not as stealthy as F-35.
Cost For Production
It is expected to be produced by a public-private joint venture between the DRDO, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), and an Indian private company. The development cost is estimated to be around ₹15,000 crore. AMCA will be a single-seat, twin-engine aircraft.
How Many AMCA Will Made By HAL?
The Indian Air Force is said to have committed 40 AMCA Mk-1 fighters and at least 100 Mk-2 derivatives, as well as some unmanned variants. The AMCA would be stealthy and have ‘super cruise’ capabilities
Which One Is Strongest F-35 or AMCA ?
The AMCA has a top speed of 2633 km/h, whereas the F 35 has a top speed of 2,000 km/h. The AMCA has a range of 3,240 kilometres, whereas the F 35 has a range of up to 2,800 kilometres. The AMCA has a combat range of up to 1620 kilometres, while the F35 has a range of 1239 kilometres.
