I said , SE TENDER will be cancelled once if LCA TEJAS ABLE TO INTEGRATED THE MORE Indigenousation in respect of critical components like RADAR, EW SUITE ETC . 2018 END IS THE DEADLINE FOR IT.
You can understand that there are many things which can't be share on Government domain.
IAF
Presently deal has an option of 18 jets, hope you know about that.
It'll be cleared at the time when delivery of first batch started.

We're discussing about IAF not IN.
you're are trying to derail the topic.
Tender already floated and 5 contenders Responded along with Saab with its paper-plane Sea GRIPEN
The delay in decision about SE tender is actually due to the new integration of AESA , EW etc on TEJAS. Everything is not shared in public media.

moreover, PDF is not the actual stage to have such informations. You may sign-up IDF for more credible information.
Where I claimed that?
First India has no official RFI and nothing is equivalent to it in formal.
And regarding the cancellation, it has a condition.
If Indian DPSU failed to fulfill the condition regarding LCA than you will see a formal RFI under MII.
We have requirement for point Defense jet or Interceptor, not a deep Strike fighter. And LCA fits in that scenario very much.
F-16 has only one majors reason for rant is that it is used by our Enemy forces.
Everybody is free to share his/her views about anything in India (not on PDF) and they are share their views about f-16 or GRIPEN. And than you have to decide , on which info you need to believe.
I also shared a source which states that Saab has requested India to co-develop GaN AESA . It makes some sense.
I never said that GRIPEN is incompatible with Indian missiles and bombs. Whereas I said IAF don't have any Saab manufactured MISSILE or bomb.
But here you failed to back your claim by an credible source.
Are you stupid or mentally dumb.
You are unable to understand English sentences than its not my problem.
Let India to decide about its requirements.
India has its own Indigenous option . $31 million never be equal to $85 million.
Your previous posts (which also don't have any credible source ) can't be considered as a source.
NOTE: Don't try put your words in my mouth.
You are trying to make many false claims on my behalf. If you have anything which I said ever than please quote that post despite of creating rant over it, raised due to your loose hands on language understanding.
You'll get better understanding about these facts on Indian Defense forums whereas you're trying to find them of this biased Pakistani Defense forum, where anyone can be banned anytime.
In Short, You have very little sources to back Your claims.
SAAB has offered India to participate in the finalizing of the SAAB GaN radar.
It is an offer of ToT. Not a request for help.
SAAB can complete the design on their own, but will only do so once they have an order.
