Hi good that is very good new if we have the technology to develop indigenous A/C it is much cheaper and good for our industries coze of economic slow down in west and it now coming in India also. It is better to support our industries and make job for our people.
India sign the deal in way back 2004 Ist it deliver to 2008 now 2012. 8yr is very long period of time my dear friend. In the same time a new super carrier can be built in class of nimitz. Why not India go for indigenous it much cheaper. 2 3 in the same class like ADS in simultaneously.
Did you that what price Gripen come around $50-60 million
I this deal we come the MBDA MICA missile they did not disclose the quantity.
Maybe that is why is go high.
you are right but you have to know that it is 30 yr old ship when we get the delivery. So do u think it is cheaper :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
and I think when the final delivery time come it go up to more then $4 billion:flame::flame:
I think India should go for 2 more ADS class ship rather then go for Gorshkov. It has much cheaper then it. May be it is not in same class but at least we got self-reliance in this field.
For su-30 16fc per sqd becouse in this we dnt need dual seat trainer and for rest 16+2 for one sqd.
but remember Ist 40 lca is not war fighter it use for training purpose.
I think you are right coze our main front line fighter is Su-30mki which is much cheaper then EF and more advance and i think price defer ratio is 2:1.In the same price may be we got F-35 which is more advance and true multirole 5 generations fighter then EF.
The upgraded Jaguars, MiG27, Mirage2k and MiG 29 will serve till 2015-2020 they will start retiring though.
May be in the case of jaguars but if they goes for DRAIN - III upgradation (with new engine (f-125IN), mission computer etc at like Mig-27 they have chance to fly next 10-15yr more...
I think in 2022 India have more then 42 sqn. You can see in current pipeline India has to produce no of fighter
Currently produce
Su-30mki - 100 130 (16=1 sqn. in the case of su-30 or fgfa)
lca - 40 mk1 150mk2/mk3
