I suggest you to understand how PSUs and government work in India. Modi cannot do jackshit. Indian institutions are controlled by bureaucrats. They are in it for life. They have their own agenda. I also suggest you to look into how tenders are done in India. I have experienced this for few...

I happen to work along with this industry. Already things are changing. Govt will not close LCA or AMCA, that government will not be elected again. But under-funding it and De-prioritizing it will do the needful. That happens to be MoD MO. Arjun MBT anyone?

Indian shipyards are at full capacity. Order books are full for next 15 years. 1. Building is not efficient like international makers. 2. Shipyards are not big enough either. New Poovar shipyard will help with capacity if the state government does something.

Whats the point?? MoD will kill it with F16. People blaming production rates, Dassault Rafale is 11 per year.

Grapevine suggests SAAB-Adani JV.

F16, Gripen - Make In India Single Engine Aircraft - News and possibilities The plot thickens.

Having more warheads does not mean MAD or Pakistan surviving. With Agni 3 already India made sure Pakistan is covered completely. Whatever happened after that from ISPR against India is propaganda for domestic consumption. Rest of Agni series, K series to S400 is for China. They are the big...

I do understand there are lot of troll posts from your side, so not sure if this is that or genuine question. I will bite. DRDO/GTRE's Kaveri Engine is not something as same as Russian Engine. Yes, I am saying Indian objective is to develop something far superior to any Russian engines that...

1. OFB made a overweight piece of garbage. 1 kilo? complete 1 kilo overweight? 2. Babus love their foreign maal.

Time will tell this is not one of those deals. I guarantee it. This will destroy LCA and AMCA. And by extension all the L2 and L3 vendors in India. You can quote this when F35 will fly in Indian jack in 10 years. maybe even 5. That's all this F16 shit is.

Kinda surprised that you dont know what Indian MIC is capable of. Perhaps, you should not be posting here then? Lets not go that far. I am not disagreeing with you completely. But baby steps. But privatizing it, I agree. And no. The revenue should not be going to CAPEX of army. India is a...

Next step should be splitting the HAL. Aircraft MRO, Jets, Helicopters. Let them fight with each other. Nothing. HAL is been making jets from 70s. SU30MKI is being made from raw materials to end product including engine. Still they need to gain expertise. Until the babus who make these deals...

Again, Disagree. What is past is past.

This one was heavy by over a kilo or something.

Then why there are 1000's frame of same design principle flying?

Shoulda, coulda, woulda. Bottom line is, ego trumps everything else. PAF wont come to India. But MRO is carrot here. Nothing else. No one is talking about HAL here. But Tata. Tata, L&T, Mahindra are on a different level. HAL is not so bad when it comes to their bottom line, I am giving them a...

This plant will start with F-16 Blk 70 and move as MRO for all the F-16 line. Russians are not soviets. India is slowly recognizing there are no allies in this world. Just countries siding with minimum risk. Light fighter is going to US(Wish LCA Tejas was here. But good news about mk1a. FOC...

Yes and No. Looks like final integration will move to India. Eitherway, the plant was facing shutdown/ramping down etc. LM will be able to run the F16 line for extra decade in their projections. Obvious the cost for them will also come down. Tata's are doing very cost effective runs for the...

No they wont. Thats not how this will work out. LM is not "giving" the jet or IP to India. LM is "relocating" the location. LM owns everything. On the other hand, UAE will pay Tata-LM JV for maintenance. Which is pittance in comparison to what India will loose from day 1 the agreement is...

That info is not out. SAAB Vendors are spread out only in NA and EU. Very small list. Makes you wonder r8?
