indian Navy has placed order for 9 NLCA MK1 to be followed by 36 NLCA MK2
these fighters will operate from INS Vikrant
No matter what anyone says
NLCA will not match up to the Mig29Ks which India already has
The only reason why the Navy will induct the NLCA is because of commonality with IAF, which will induct 120+ LCA MK1/2
otherwise its an inferior platform
INS Vishal will be inducted around 2027
it will be a 65000 ton catobar carrier
i expect either Rafale or Naval PAKFA to serve onboard Vishal
