Best naval fighter? I am not sure whether it can even follow Superbug, Su-27K or F-14D from a distance..
Speaking about supercruise ability with Tejas is not a pleasant idea, as well..
the su-27K is limited by size and therefore cannot be really used on an indian carrier. also the f-14 will retire before the Nlca comes out.i dont see the super hornet being much of a threat to the NLCA.i am not sure how the UAE f-16 and the IDF f-16 along with the swedish gripen compare to the LCA but since the LCA is a newer fighter it should do better.
