its very murky to say the leastNo, firstly they want only Mirage 2000, in fact Dassault was ready to transfer whole production line to India.
Then Iaf got new found money & MMRCA saga begins.
LCA is interceptor would not be hurt from Mirage.
Lol, its you who on drugs as whole life of Mirage 2000 is nearly 6000 hrs & with update 8000 hrs, where does 15000 flight hrs UAE Mirage 2000-9 come from ?
fact is IAF loves M2Ks and no ammount of them is too less for M2k
fact is last NDA goverment was in principle greeng to buying 126 more and initiated to complete TOT which french later agreed to but since goverment changed and the new one wasnt "interested"
fact is LCA was dragged too much and goal posts were changed as IAF always wanted more M2Ks
fact also is that after UPA came to power something changed and IAF who wanted M2K as a medium catagory fighter suddenlli wanted a twin engined fighter and then came the disatrous MMRCA saga that wasted a full decade of IAF ... had NDA got a second shot things would have had been much much different than what they are now
last but not the least where and when did i said that UAE M2Ks had clocked 15000 flying hours or is that you who is no drugs .... i never mentioned that UAE M2Ks had clocked 15000 flying hours all i always said was that they are almost in mint condition and very less flying hours on the clock and thats it ... period
