I don't care if plane crashes but what really important is pilot's life. I hope he survived.

I have a feeling IAF is doing this on purpose, crashing 40 year old jets, so that it creates an uproar and a pressure is built up on government to acquire new ones.

I mean, when I was a little kid, sometimes I used to purposefully lose a cricket bat or a ball so that I can get a new one !

Indian Air Force in which Planes does not retired, they phased out by crashing

Jaguar are in Production till 2008
What would their explanation for C130, SU-30 MKI, AJT HAWK etc.
Thank God they didn't touch LCA yet neither 2-3 got crashed which would killed whole program.

Now that sounds like a spoilt kids who breaks his old toys so that he can demand for new ones from his parents.
