Hi Nishan_101, this is not true, because only because the fighters have the same origin, doesn't meant they use the same spares! F18SH is from Boeing, use the GE 414 engine and APG 79 radar, F35 instead is from LM, use the PW F135 engine and the APG 81 radar. How should these fighters have common spares and maintenance if they are so different? The only commonality they will have, is the same US weapon pack, but even N-LCA, Mig 29K and a future N-FGFA would use mainly the same Indo-Russian weapon mix.
Exactly and so does Rafale and Super Entendards, or Su 33 and 25, or even N-FGFA and Rafale.
First of all, the Super Entendards are still be used for strikes alongside Rafale and will go on for some time, secondly Rafale M just like F35 is only available in single seat versions (Rafale N, because France did not funded it). Regarding the training, just try to find out how the Rafale and F35 pilots train and you will find out the answer.
Go through this thread and you will find good infos about the baval Gripen. EF was considered, because UK made some studies about a naval STOBAR version of the EF in the past, called Sea Typhoon.
Su 33 will not be produced anymore and Russia replace it with Mig 29Ks, IN was interested in a naval version of the MKI, but the Groshkov and the Vikrant will be to small to carry them
Can u paste some pics of Grippen-N and Sea Typhoon with specifications. And im saying that U.S pilots have good experience in landing jets on carrier and they could use F-18B/D/F for training new pilots on F-35C untill the twin seater is not available and french have Super Etendards twin seater as trainer. So what will iNAF be doing for their training if they select Rafael?
New Recruit
the question is really indian navy need mig 29
well i think indian navy choose the best may be rafale f18 mig35 f35
how far mig29 has future
we have to select the best of best for IN

No these are new versions of mig29 they are much more advanced than IAF's mig 29. They are true muli role with much higher range, more weapon load and very similar to mig 35 (excluding AESA radar and thrust vectoring). In ability, technology and lethality they are as good as F-16 Block 52.
sir
isnt it would have been great if we have opted 4 mig-35 navel version insted of 29. as its on par with mki.
sir,
so why navy had not opted for 3-d tvc for mig-29 in this new deal as it would have inhanced its capabiltis.

maybe the RD 33 MK engines are different in the land based, or navy versions.
