New Indian stealth fighter to fly soon
It is called the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft or FGFA, developed in collaboration with Sukhoi.
Probably the most maneuverable fighter in the world, It has the ability to supercruise or operate at speeds beyond the speed of sound (to Mach 2) without engaging systems such as afterburners which consume huge amounts of fuel. The aircraft will be equipped with an electronically scanned array radar whose beams are electronically steered to detect targets with maximum accuracy. Probably no fighter can beat it, indeed it is now more advanced than the Sukhoi 30.
