LUCKNOW: Rafale fighter jet from French company Dassault Aviation, and F-35 Lightning II of US defence manufacturer Lockheed Martin, will be among major attractions of the DefExpo-2020, slated to be held in Lucknow from February 5-8.

According to Indian Air Force (IAF) officials, Rafale jet will form a part of the French and US arsenal which will be on displayed in Hall 1 of the Expo.

Lockheed Martin, American manufacturer of some of the world’s most sophisticated fighter jets, is also expected to showcase its products in Hall 2. Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II, fifth-generation combat aircraft, will have an entire pavilion to itself.

Artillery and ammunition from Israel, known for its high-end military power, will also be on display in the Expo. A separate section has been earmarked for Israel’s ministry of defence while a dedicated pavilion has been kept aside for defence companies from Israel.

The list includes RADA, specialists in defence electronics, ORBIT, a missioncritical communication solutions for land, sea, air and space applications, and Israel Aerospace – an aviation manufacturer which makes aerial and astronautic systems for both military and civilian usage.
In addition, defence players from South Africa, Russia, Bulgaria and Australia will also display their assets.

Indian giants Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) and Bharat Heavy Electrical Limited (BHEL) will also rub shoulders with the best foreign companies in defence manufacturing. Private defence companies including Adani Defence systems will also participate in the event. Officials engaged in preparations said more than 500 companies have registered for the expo. “The number

Anyways we are not even offered F35s and with S400 they are out of question. But F35s at defexpo would be the centre of attention.

Pakistan is a F16 user, next logical step is F-35. Pakistan should start bugging US for F-35s already. Unless India purchase Sh!t ton of F-21 or something for billion n billions. F-35 is not going there.

PAF is not getting F35s anytime soon regardless of how much it bugs the US. PAF knows this - hence project Azm!

Most tech savvy countries can create some shape or form of stealth fighter. But technological gap between US and Pakistan is a day n night difference. Universities over here are rewriting and redefine science research papers and science books everyday.

Whereas in Pakistan degree, degree hoti hy.

So ya, Pakistan can create project Azam but system, subsystems, software, quality will be Mehran n farrari difference.

Good thing is that mehran wont be facing a Ferrari. Even if it does the driver will probably crash it.

F-18s are frontrunner... especially to avoid SANCTIONS post S 400 DELIVERY... and US is not leaving any occasion to remind India about the consequences of buying S 400... and only way to avoid that is... BUY SOMETHING FOR BILLION N BILLIONS...

5 years back I would have also said that... F 35 is not coming... before 2010, I would have also said that no way... No Apache or Chinook or C 130...

2004 is a year... a milestone... in Indo-US relations... and now everything is on TABLE... it is India which is hesitating not US...
