Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadauria, former chief of the Indian Air Force, has delivered a resounding vote of confidence in the upgraded Tejas Mk1A fighter jet, declaring it superior in several aspects even to the formidable Mirage-2000 currently in service. This statement comes as the country grapples with the question of finding a suitable replacement for the ageing MiG-21 fleet.

While acknowledging the MiG-21’s Squadrons as the first recipient of the Tejas Mk1A, Bhadauria emphasized that the new aircraft’s capabilities far surpass its predecessor it is replacing. He stated that the Mk1A is not just a MiG-21 replacement, but a leap forward in terms of technology and firepower, leaving both the MiG-21 and, surprisingly, the Mirage-2000 in its dust.
