The thought is interesting for respective reasons. Exports to Brazil would be the first export success of Tejas, which so far has not been met with the interest of 3rd countries in addition to a large home order (40 Mk1 aircraft plus almost 200 Mk1A aircraft). This is despite many advanced method solutions implemented on this platform and a very good cost-effect ratio. A contract for Brazil, e.g. for respective dozen, or more than a 100 aircraft, could supply quite a few operational experience and become an incentive to increase Tejas' production pace.
