Bad decision, we should be focusing all of our energy on netra mk2.
Instead of buying 6 netra mk1 we should be buying 6 more netra mk2 (a total of 12 netra mk2)

Netra mk1 is deficient in many parameters like reduced fuel capacity, smaller range, lower max altitude, etc and was only chosen due to corruption.

Bribes from Brazil

The agreement, a copy of which is with India Today, painstakingly details how Embraer paid $5.76 million in 2009 to an Indian arms agent identified in the document only as 'Agent D'.

It has the range of 3k. Pretty much cover the western front easily. Also support them in northeast area against chinese as it can be launched from small airports

Its 6 + 6

6 Netra Mk2, Airbus aircrafts are already modified. DRDO is putting together the radar that needs to go onto them.

We need numbers, also the issues with Netra M1 have been addressed to some extent in Nekra Mk1 A. One of the three Netra Mk1 have been modified, and the new 6 jets our guys wanna acquire will be of M1 standard.

How soon can we get the first one of this lot? Is 2 years realistic?

I believe so, cause the planes have been brought and I think its Israel who is helping with the modification.

However given our DRDO boys lol, the radar can be doubtful timeline wise.
