change of engine was the main reason behind the troubles according to HAL.
BTW we should start tendor for IJT, for private componies. They can chose foreign partners. But HAL should be given chance in this tendor. I think Mahindra is able to develope IJT type planes.
Not NDRF, they were stuck Dehradun due to heavy rain for whole weak. It was IA which did impressive work, mobilizes more than 50000 soldiers from different parts to area and saved thousands lives even bad weather scenario.
We should cancel upgradation of jaguar, migs & miraj. Why?
Because jaguar will not provide any more leverage over current form in IAF. Use them until they serve. BTW they are 3rd in line for replacement after migs.
Miraj are good and upgradation indeed is fruitfull. But 2024 is the time-frame...
Either 6t or 7tons, it falls in light weight category. BTW he was talking about tejus flight performance.
It get IOC2 recently. FOC will be acheived by next june any lway. What I get in one artical was very interesting. It says that tejus induction was delayed because HAL was unable to...
Tejus is at least equal to upgraded miraj, that what miraj pilot itself says. So dont think that tejus will be most inferior plane in IAf.
Bison are too old. Thats why we need to replace. Now do you think 40 mk1 and 89 mk2 order justify that they are replacemnt for bisons.
Originally mk2...
If tot goes to private company. They know IAF will demand more, they also know that they have to pay more again to other company for newer system. So they will start learning and developing the system from tot and manufacturing. ..........but HAL, hal is just the dump site for money.
Actually mkis were meant to replace older fighters......like hunter, canbera, mig23,25 and older 21s which were retired without any replacement.
Replacemnts for type 90/70/95/m and fighter which are on verge of their life like bis and mig27, is still on pipeline. This show that we are too far...
You are excalty right bro.
And not only technical hindrances but also IAFs ignorance also kill the project. They can fly only 32 squardons but refusing to induct LCA because it is not good. Tell me a fighter name which was inducted in force in 100% form. We bark on Israelis tech but we refuse to...
