What is 4 + in this launch of Tejas aircraft?
Namaste,
4+ generation known as anything above 4 and typically 4.5-gen fighters are called this because they feature advances in technology over 4th-gen fighters that were designed in the 1970s and dominated the skies in the 1980s and 1990s yet they aren’t entirely revolutionary designs like the F-22 Raptor and other 5th-gen planes.
