I agree but the point is whether they are going for bigger wingspan etc? or they have dropped the idea?

Previous reports indicated larger wing span. Which seeems logical since it is no more a 5500 Kg (dry) airplane but due to new requirements and technical constrains LCA-II has become a 7,000 Kg (dry) aircraft.



I expect its MTOW to be about 12 tonnes, quite close to medium weight MRCA !
