I have my doubts about the competency of the companies involved. But at this point, does India have any choice? HAL was given a privileged position ever since independence -- 80 years almost. What has it done with it? Scarcely little.

Main problem why HAL is so I'll is it was forced head on into incredibly ambitious Tejas project. It was a by default impossible task, and as anything by default impossible it made organization adapt to impossible requests.
But for better or worse, it at least did produce a fighter aircraft, from first pencil drafts to production of serviceable fighters.

Now India does exact same mistake, once over again. They're again giving impossible task to a fresh organization, which never even designed, much less fielded a complete aircraft.

Doesn't take MBA to predict results.
