@direwolf7491 it is not what you want Meteor to put on MK2 or not, it is French do not allow you to use it on any jet without European radar, all your later AESA will be from Israel, understand??
not only that, it is a total waste to put Meteor on Tejas, even on your Rafale is kind of waste, because, RBE2AA radar for India is with only 750 T/R, with detection and locking range is about 130 km, shorter than Meteor range, that is why is a waste, let alone using Israel 2052 ardar.

air show, as its name says, it is just a show, in real air battle today, it does not mean much, today all BVR air battle, no matter its "superior flying manoeuvers" wont help much, since the limit for a pilot tolerance of G force will be about 9 G, same for the jet, but air to air missile can do 30-40 g easily, this jet max speed 1.6, missile can go Mach 4. Therefore most important is radar and missile, JF 17 III got AESA radar can detect Tejas over 170 km and with same range missile PL 15 to shoot it down no matter how Tejas's "superior flying manoeuvers"
