Which will be retired first?

[T90TankGuy]

while the mig 21 (non bison) are a priority , the next in line will have to be the mig 27 which were not upgraded.

who has voted For Jaguar, Mig-27 and Su-30MKI
Oh, Now , i see, You people are consolidating Poor Mig-21

Very unlikely, IAF pilots are highly impressed by the performance of Mirages, MMRCA wouldn't have happened if Mirage production lines were open in 2002. India might buy used UAE Mirages, if they want to sell it.

i think after a few more years,spares will turn out to be a problem,and i think Mirages will be retired in favour to lca

first retire this stupid sucking Great Gandhi dynasty of congress then automatically all things get sorted out pretty much with ease.
1st priority Gandhi dynasty
2nd absolutely Poor mig21 babies

1) Mig 21 - already beeing phased out
2) Mig 27 - already beeing replaced with MKIs, some might be replaced by Rafale too. Only 2 x squads were upgraded
3) Mig 21 Bisions - mainly with Rafale or LCA MK2 squads
4) Mig 27UPG
5) Jags
6) Mig 29UPG - less potential, high operational costs, more maintenance issues
7) Mirage 2000 UPG
8) MKI

In this order

Mig27 if retired can still be made operational just like we have spare Mig25s that played in Pakistani skies once .
