... ndtv.com ... https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/inside- ... ng-2162561 ...The aircraft tested today is a technology demonstrator and is unlikely to go into production since it does not have the engine thrust (power) required for it to carry a meaningful weapons payload when deployed on the deck of an aircraft carrier.
The tests now being conducted are meant to test whether a host of systems designed specifically for operations off an aircraft carrier function effectively and are reliable.
These could be a part of a substantially larger, twin engine variant of the Tejas being designed by Hindustan Aeronautics as a possible replacement for the Russian designed MiG-29K fighters presently deployed on the INS Vikramaditya.

… theaviationist.com … F/A-18 Super Hornet Successfully Completes Carrier Compatibility Tests In India …Boeing announced on Jul. 20, 2022 (*), that its F/A-18 Super Hornet successfully completed operational demonstration tests at Indian Naval Station Hansa in Goa, India.
The tests were aimed at showing the Super Hornet’s ability to effectively and safety operate off Indian Navy STOBAR (Short Take-Off But Arrested Recovery) aircraft carriers, such as the INS Vikramaditya and the under-construction INS Vikrant, complementing its MiG-29K Fulcrums.
Two U.S. Navy F/A-18E Super Hornets, one of those sporting the markings of Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 25 “Fist of the Fleet” based at Naval Air Station Lemoore, California, “completed multiple ski-jumps, roll-in and fly-in arrestments, as well as performance flights, in a variety of weights in the air-to-air, air-to-ground, and air-to-surface configurations, meeting the Indian Navy test requirements.”

Boeing ritiene che la scelta migliore per l'Aviazione Navale Indiana sia il suo F/A-18 Super Hornet ...
… business-standard.com … Boeing hard sells F/A-18 Super Hornet to Indian Navy for INS Vikrant …US aerospace major Boeing on Wednesday pitched its F/A-18 Super Hornet as the best platform to address the Indian Navy's requirement of deck-based jets for aircraft carrier INS Vikrant.
Top officials of Boeing said the company anticipates USD 3.6 billion in economic impact to the Indian aerospace and defence industry over the next 10 years if F/A-18 Super Hornet Block III is selected.
The Navy has shortlisted F/A-18 Super Hornet and Rafale M aircraft produced by the French aerospace major Dassault Aviation for the procurement.
Over four years back, the Indian Navy had initiated the process to acquire 57 multi-role combat aircraft for its aircraft carrier.
However, the Navy plans to procure 26 aircraft initially.
Boeing India President Salil Gupte said F/A-18 Super Hornet Block III would be the best deck-based aircraft for the Indian Navy and that the company plans to further strengthen its 'Make in India' initiatives, building on a successful track record of contributing to the country's indigenous aerospace and defence ecosystem.
