Indian Military Picture Thread

Indian Airforce has got aircrafts from almost every significant producer of the fighter planes except USA, and i am sure after MRCA contract is finalized it will have those too.

Though not fighers, IAF has operated and presently operates US made aircraft.

so Indian airforce would be the only airforce in the world which would be enjoying the luxury of almost every technology in the world of aviation.

Not true.

pitty on MiGs which looked formidable fighters before the introduction of SU-30 MKI, but now, no one even pays attention to their existance.
i wonder what would happen to MiG family after the induction of MRCA.

MiG is in the fray for designing a single engined 5th gen fighter to compliment the Indo-Russian PAK-FA/FGFA. IN has already ordered extra 29 MiG29K's. RN has also ordered further MiG29Ks, for their aircraft carrier to replace their Su-33s, after the Indian order is completed, and are upgrading their RuAF existing fleet to the SMT standards. So MiG is going to be pretty busy.

Beautiful Birds!
If I were to be facing the business end of any of these fighters, I would hate to face the Mirage-2000H's among all these! IAF pilots swear by the M2Ks and if it weren't for Dassult's closing of their assembly line for te 2Ks, MMRCA would never have happened!
Its rumored that newbies go for Su-30MKI training, MiG-29's, but the veterans and the best pilots are sent to M2Ks!!
Go figure why!

Wonderful pics indeed. I would like to see some Transport air arm of IAF especially its Choppers.
