    we don't have any option to replace them in near future(only if we can buy additional su 30mki, about which iaf is not interested).Tejas can't be ramp up immediately as said by arup raha himself(will come by 2025-28).So all mig will be replaced only by late 20's. I thought tejas mk2 would be...

    Its not about quality but quantity. There is a need to replace 14 sq of mig 21/27 with cheap planes under MII. Most importantly its about creating aerospace ecosystem + jobs under MII + engines tech (from usa if f 16 is selected) + geo-political decision.

    It's completely a pet project for Modi's MII . It has nothing to do with tender/negotiations.
