Common buddy its becoming a trend to blash our armed forces.
I even read some genius poster saying everybody in forces is corrupt. I generally avoid such posts but did you ever think of what is going on.
- IAF diluted requirement for "BASIC TRAINER".
First thing tell me why did we need to buy basic trainer ??? Do we have a local option ??? Can we manage without buying them ???
I suggest you search for our indigenous basic trainer project. And please post the dates of various announcements and claims.
And it will not stop here. Same thing is going on with IJT but our PSUs dont think they should fast track IJT which is required but they decide to go fast track with basic trainer with own funding which isn't required anymore.
- About LCA. Ask same questions in the above point. LCA is not a dire requirement. And if our PSUs declare thats all they can do IAF will induct the Sqds.
But what happen in reality every now and then a DRDO/HAL guy come up with new promises and lot of mouth steam. Our DRDO chief publicly talk about inducting 5th gen features in LCA MK-3 even before existing problems in MK-1 have not completly been solved.
- so simple point being DRDO tell IAF we can do this and we can do that and while delivering they deliver next date
- on other hand look at the project LCH. Thats a dire need. Only TD-1 and TD-2 are ready today but they ( IA + IAF ) already placed the order. Power plant issue of Druva is solved and IA has started accepting deliveries.
So exact answer to you question is "the promises made by DRDO" are stopping IAF from diluting requirements. eg Why in the world I will go for PESA radar for LCA M-2 when DRDO said AESA will be ready and made public a photo of TR module with reynolds pen ???
- people always talk about IAF changing requirement every now and then.
First thing why DRDO accept those changes ??? Cause they think they can do it and secondly requirements in the field did changed rapidly and our project got plagued.
Saying a service man corrupt and pimp is valid when somebody did such activities. Blaming entire force for the deeds of few is calling all indian rapist for the rape happened in Delhi. Its a Chinese troll logic
But they never fail to give promises which they cant keep
