My analysis of future IAF
2010- Total aircraft-636 , Effective aircraft(Su30,Mig29,Mirage,Jaguar)-413, Next to be retired:Mig21,Mig27,Jaguar

Stealth rules india.IAF becomes attack airforce. More than sufficient airforce. India can attack deep in china.
Interceptor . Tejas Mk1-40,Tejas Mk2-150 .190
Multirole/airsuperiority . Fgfa-250,Sukhoi su30 super-254 .504
Fighter aircraft . Pakfa-50,Amca-100,Su30mki-50 .200
Ground attack . MMRCA-126,Indeginous bomber-150,Sukhoi/Mig bomber-100 .376
2050- Total aircraft-1370 , Effective aircraft(super30,Tejas,Indian bomber,Russian bomber,Pakfa,fgfa,MMRCA,Stealth bomber)-1020, Next to be retired:MMRCA,Su30's
Inducts more stealthy crafts. Gets ready for 6th gen aircrafts. Neighbours scare from India.India can attack china and pakistan simuntaneously!
Interceptor . Tejas Mk2-150, MMRCA-100 .250
Multirole/airsuperiority . Fgfa-250,Amca-200 .450
Fighter aircraft . Pak fa-50,Su30 most advanced-250 .300
Ground attack . Tejas Mk3-50,Stealth bomber-20,Indeginous bomber-200,Russian bomber-100 .370
Then onwards non stealthy aircrafts will be slowly replaced by stealthy ones and 6th gen aircrafts.
In 2060 su30's becomes 2010 mig21's and the story continues.....
*Effective aircraft refers to good aircraft at that time.
