Its actually to stop Pakistan getting them for now, delay the programme, nothing else, and that too because India put pressure on Russia. I assure you, there will be no restrictions of export for RD-93 to any other country but Pakistan.Why do you think the Russians have placed restrictions on the JF-17 export (due to the non-reexport clause on the RD-93??)
Its because they do not want Chinese to compete with JF-17 in the same market as the Mig-29.
Well...if you think MiG 29 is a BS fighter, then you might as well call your existing un-upgraded F-16 fighters too as BS. Because India got the MiG 29 as a counter to F-16's. Hell it was made to counter F-16's. It was better than F-16's in a2a, but very bad in multirole, something F-16 was very good in.Aside from the Mig-35 and Mig-29SMT, your basic Mig-29 is a BS point defence fighter.
Ofcourse they have upgraded avionics than the original MiG 29, that plane was bought 15 years ago, JF-17 has not yet been inducted by PAF, obviously it will have better avionics. What are you trying to prove here?JF-17 and even FC-1 will have more updated avionics and armament than the vast majority of the Mig-29s that the Russians are themselves using and have sold off to unfortunate buyers around the world.
Te MiG 29 SMT will have the latets avionics, and the Indian MiG 29's will go for that. Well, unfortunate or not, the buyers who bought MiG 29 obviously thought it fit to go for that. And obviously Russians sold the plane, why wouldnt they?
It aint a silly road, your just ranting now.Please do not even get me started on this silly road.
