Italy buys its first three F-35s. With a shocking announcement: “a JSF will

I'm waiting for India'r order for F-35s.

Yep, that's more like it, and then tell your adversaries that buying such high tech weapon is a waste of money, they should instead focus on economy. Can you tell us how many millions of hungry mouths in the slums of Mumbai can be fed by the money spent to purchase just one F-35?

I seriously doubt that US will give F-35's to India. No offense.

Buying fighter jets even with the best tech will not make you victorious. Please come out of your typical Indian delusion...

Did you not ever hear them talk about poverty when Muslim states buy or develop weapons?

 

[baqai]

Why would India ever want to get F-35? don't they already have Mig-21's serving as their flying coffins?

Now that is very cheap. Even the old F-15's US sold recently to Saudi Arabia cost twice that.

This thing only calculates the FlyAway costs not unit cost for purchase. Meaning this thing costs 79Million $. It does not calculate the cost of Research and development it doesn't calculate the costs of spare parts training or any of that which will bring the cost probably twice as the cost mentioned here.

The F-15s are not old and if you have the slightest of military knowledge you would not say that actually but then again you are short brained so it is to be expected.

Our Defense budget is not a burden on our economy, unlike what many members on pdf seem to think, it is still only 1.9% of our gdp despite increases in FY12
And no indian ever critisizes all muslim states defense budget dude, the only budget critisized is that of Pakistan because it is a popular perception that Pakistan overspends on it's budget to sustain it's military...whether the perception is true or not the discussion is for some other time.....

Oh really??
Then according to your srtategy the world should arm itself with spitfires and meschirmitts!!
I agree pilots make a difference, but no matter how good a pilot is he simply cannot defnd himself if a "high tech" plane with BVR spotted him from 200 kms away...
