yup sure! bcoz indian aerospace agencies have learnt grt experiance while working on lca programme and they have also concluded succesful domestic upgrade of fighter like jaguar darin 3,mig 21 bison,mig 27 flogger h,and they r also working on various new advance project like sukhoi 30 mki & fgfa so they r getting good experience & now india can provide good funds for defence development programs and now days every countries mostly european,american,russians & israelies are willing to sell and co-operate with india on their advance defence technology so the first mca that rolled out will be worthy

How many mig21s will still be in servise?

 

[oct605032048]

How many mig21s will still be in servise?

None.
'cause they all have been maintained and upgrated by HAL.

I think Su 30 MKI should now be increased to 350 by 2020.

 

[sarthak]

How many mig21s will still be in servise?
