Turkey's KAAN fighter program is advancing rapidly with prototype testing and planned deliveries. India's AMCA program faces delays in engine selection and stealth material development. The KAAN's multi-prototype strategy accelerates its development timeline significantly. India's AMCA first flight is unlikely before the early 2030s. This progress gap could leave India behind in fifth-generation fighter capabilities.
