== Development ==
=== MWF Programme ===
The development of Tejas Mark 2 or MWF was initiated to address all the shortcomings in Tejas Mark 1 and Mark 1A, and to meet the original Air Staff Requirements (ASR) set out for the LCA programme by the IAF. The development of Tejas Mark 2 was authorised in November 2009 as a continuation of LCA programme, under the phase 3 of full-scale engineering development (FSED) process.{{refn|The FSED process of the LCA programme was began in 1993 with first two phases completed so far, which resulted in the development of Tejas Mark 1, Mark 1A, LCA trainer, LCA Navy Mark 1 and LCA Navy trainer variants|group=N}}<ref>{{Cite web|date=2019-08-23|title=Long-awaited indigenous light combat aircraft Tejas Mk II targeted by 2022|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/indigenous-light-combat-aircraft-targeted-by-2022/story-MGy2MXsapn8H6IDjUNt12H.html|access-date=2021-06-16|website=Hindustan Times|language=en}}</ref> The FSED phase 3 consisted of design, development and manufacturing of two prototypes.<ref name=":0">{{cite report|title=ADA annual report 2015-16|url=https://www.ada.gov.in/images/Annual%20Report%202015-16.pdf}}</ref> Initially planned as an upsized Tejas, with a 0.5 m fuselage plug to accommodate more fuel and a more powerful engine, the Tejas Mark 2 design has evolved over years into a completely new medium weight class fighter.<ref name=":0" /> The preliminary design studies for the Tejas Mark 2 has been completed in 2014 and was in detailed design phase as of 2015.<ref name=":0" /> The redesigned fighter was first unveiled at the [[Aero India]] air show 2019, it was a 17.5 tonne class fighter with close coupled canards and integrated IRST system.<ref name="janes-aeroindia19">{{Cite web |url=https://www.janes.com/article/86671/aero-india-2019-ada-unveils-tejas-af-mk-2-medium-weight-fighter |title=Aero India 2019: ADA unveils Tejas AF Mk 2 Medium Weight Fighter |website= janes.com |access-date=2019-09-12}}</ref> Metal-cutting for the Tejas Mark 2 is set to begin in February 2021, while long lead activities towards metal cutting (like, procurement of raw materials) have already begun.

== Design ==
Other than design commonalities very little major technologies has been forwarded from its predecessor Tejas Mark 1A. Instead more of its technologies are to be borrowed from whatever has been developed for the [[Fifth-generation jet fighter|5th Generation fighter jet]] program of India, [[HAL AMCA|AMCA]]. Several [[radar cross-section]] reducing measures will be incorporated in the airframe design so that a degree of [[Stealth aircraft|frontal stealth]] can be achieved, including [[Radiation-absorbent material|Radar-absorbent material]] coating and composites making up its skin, twisted air-intake ducts.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://idrw.org/mwf-tejas-mk-2-will-feature-semi-stealth-air-frame/|title=MWF Tejas Mk-2 will feature " Semi Stealth " Air frame}}</ref> It has a tail-less compound delta-wing configuration with a single [[vertical stabilizer]] with [[Canard (aeronautics)|close-coupled canards]] to provide static instability, high manoeuverability, and is equipped with fly-by-wire systems to control instability. MWF is also to feature an indigenous integrated life support system-onboard oxygen generation system (ILSS-OBOGS), from [[Defence Bioengineering and Electromedical Laboratory]] (DEBEL), aircraft [[Health and usage monitoring systems|health and usage monitoring system]] (HUMS) to integrate various sensors onboard Tejas Mark 2 from [[Defence Institute of Advanced Technology]] (DIAT) and a built-in integrated electro-optic [[electronic warfare]] suite among other improvements to avionics.<ref name="The Economic Times2">{{cite news|url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/defence/tejas-mk-ii-india-may-avail-consultancy-from-european-manufacturers-who-bid-for-mmrca-deal/articleshow/48347892.cms|title=Tejas Mk-II: India may avail consultancy from European manufacturers who bid for MMRCA deal|date=11 July 2018|work=The Economic Times|agency=Press Trust of India}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/nation/2019/sep/20/lca-tejas-to-level-up-with-on-board-oxygen-system-by-early-2020-says-drdo-2036300.html|title=LCA Tejas to level up with on-board oxygen system by early 2020, says DRDO|website=The New Indian Express|access-date=2020-04-21}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://archive.indianexpress.com/news/diat-system-soon-to-monitor-inflight-health-of-tejas-mkii/831436/|title=DIAT system soon to monitor in-flight health of Tejas Mk-II - Indian Express|website=archive.indianexpress.com|access-date=2020-04-21}}</ref> It will have an [[infra-red search and track]] (IRST) system and a [[missile approach warning system]] (MAWS).<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.janes.com/article/86671/aero-india-2019-ada-unveils-tejas-af-mk-2-medium-weight-fighter|title=Aero India 2019: ADA unveils Tejas AF Mk 2 Medium Weight Fighter|last1=Tauro|first1=Caron Natasha|date=20 February 2019|work=Jane's Defence Weekly|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190220163751/https://www.janes.com/article/86671/aero-india-2019-ada-unveils-tejas-af-mk-2-medium-weight-fighter|archive-date=20 February 2019|location=Bangalore}}</ref> An increase in payload capacity to {{cvt|6500|kg|lb}} and internal fuel capacity to over {{cvt|3400|kg|lb}}, will allow it to carry more weapons for longer range.<ref name="ajaishukla.blogspot.com">{{cite news|url=http://ajaishukla.blogspot.com/2019/03/the-tejas-mark-2-fighter-has-been.html|title=The Tejas Mark 2 fighter has been bulked up into medium fighter category}}</ref>

=== Sensors and avionics ===
The avionics of Tejas Mark 2 will be centered on [[multi-sensor data fusion]] incorporating both active and passive sensors onboard. The Tejas Mark 2 would be equipped with a variant of [[Uttam AESA Radar]] developed by [[Electronics and Radar Development Establishment]] (LRDE), while the combat aircraft will also have an integrated [[infrared search and track]] (IRST) system for passive target acquisition. The Tejas Mark 2 will have indigenous [[Software-defined radio]] based tactical data link for secured communication and [[network-centric warfare]] capabilities supported by IAF's [[Air Force Network|AFNet]] digital information grid.<ref name="OnManoramaFeb2020">{{Cite web|url=https://english.manoramaonline.com/news/nation/2020/02/03/india-defence-expo-medium-weight-fighter.html|title=India's Medium Weight Fighter set to fly into detail design phase|last=Krishnan M|first=Anantha|date=3 February 2020|website=[[OnManorama]]|language=en|access-date=2020-02-03}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=‘Make in India’ Software Defined Radio: ‘Mother’ of all solutions for tactical communications of armed forces|url=https://www.financialexpress.com/defence/make-in-india-software-defined-radio-mother-of-all-solutions-for-tactical-communications-of-armed-forces/1680536/}}</ref>
