What's new

Algeria buys 14 stealth fighters from Russia, report says

We want TOT and nothing else, either complete manufacturing in house or else forget it.
" Pakistan should work closely with Russia to procure 42 Su-50s for long range strike missions ".

There is nothing called Su-50s you mean SU-57
 
.
India is looking at two seats version
India is probably going to buy these in future with heavy Western Modifications, like MKIs.
Nah...IAF doesn't want to induct anymore Russia fighter jets, definitely not the Su-57 and this decision was taken over 5yrs ago when we had differences in the developmental phase of FGFA despite investing $200mn in the project. Also, IAF is well aware of Russian jets being maintenance heavy and issues with availability of spares

There is a possibility for IN to go with a few more license manufactured Mig-29s for the new INS Vikrant AC to maintain commonality and uniformity with the current fleet but that's about it. IAF's only hope for 5th gen jets is to wait for AMCA to take shape. F-35 isn't a possibility either since any American platform comes with too many strings attached

Highly unlikely. Su-57 is not for export anytime soon. Even Russia cannot meet its own demand due to its measly manufacturing capacity.

Why not invest in Tempest and KF-21? India has good relation with Britain and South Korea.
