The Mig-29k is a true MRCA which despite the Mig29 exterior is a VERY different beast that can do almost any mission. Whilst the Su33 is outdated and designed for Air superiority, a2a and CAP and I doubt the Chinese rip-off is any better. And the range issue- IN has also ordered Isreali buddy refuelling pods similar to those used by IAF MKI and IN Sea Harriers, so not really an issue!

Why some people always praise China as if it belongs to them.

DEFENSE STUDIES: China's First Aircraft Carrier To Begin Sea Trials

[notsuperstitious]

^^^ Ok we love, nay, worship China, nobody is as good as China, never was, never will be, its useless bringing China into India threads as nobody in their wildest dreams consider Vikramiditya a match to varyag in any and I mean ANY parameter. All Chinese and Pakistanis too must be so proud!

Now thats established, can we not post more Varyag posts here please. Thank you, I mean xie xie!

what use will a 45k tonne ship like this be if it carries only 16 mig-29k?

it should carry atleast 45.

Depends on what you want to do with it and who will be the opponent! If Sea Control is the main mission, 16 x Mig 29 + some N-LCAs and helicopters will be useful to cover a wide area at the sea and even block certain ports in war times. A single Mig 29K, should be able to carry 4 x AAMs and 4 x Kh 35 anti ship missiles + a centerline fuel tank, not to mention their qualities in air combats. PN and shore based PAF fighters would have more than a serious opponent with this carrier and even the small number of fighters, while taking on the Chinese carrier with J15s in future, will be more difficult for the INS Vikramditya and why I would like to see AESA radar and TVC to be added on the last batch of Migs.
