India abandons procurement of single engine fighters, will focus on twin engine types. so no F16 or Gripen on the horizon.
View: Why India should not delay its fighter jet procurement

stlbeacon.org - 2/28/2018


By cancelling the single engine fighter jet procurement and expanding it to include twin engine fighters, the government is trying to find a different result by trying the same thing as it was done in the previous MMRCA tender which it scrapped in 2015. The reason apparently is due to the furore created over the Rafale deal and the government does not want allegations later as there were only two contenders for the single engine jet, Lockheed Martin F-16 and SAAB Gripen.

Intersting. No demonstration of IFR. I think they should ot miss any opportunity to demonstrate IFR capability to ram it down people's throats. Buth another good step in the right direction.

The Guy standing 4th from left , Which unit he is commanding in sumungli ? I know all other guys but not him.
 
MashaAllah. So No 28 is up and I am expecting the count soaring to at least No 30 with JF-17B and Block III yet to join. It is noteworthy that PAF is expanding during times when IAF's strength has decreased in terms of overall squadron strength. Certainly, IAF would be watching this development and it is expected that we see lots of propaganda on Indian media to fetch lots of extra funds to raise new squadrons.
