Answer for the day ::

Looks like there are few confusions ::
1. Surya Kiran is the name of Indian AirForce Acrobatic Team and is not a plane. ( I Got 10 + Answers as Surya Kiran )
2. Airbus / Boeing is the name of company and not the names of a Plane. ( Planes are A - 380 , Boeing 777 etc )
3. F- 16 / Su - 30 are already operational.

The Answer I was Looking for is Light Combat Aircraft or Tejas.
And NO its not India's First indigenously build Fighter Aircraft.
If I correctly remember First Plane was name Marut . ( Dont remember exactly though )
