Indeed. Left India the only impotent countries still need to buy major weapon from Russia and the West as India weapon industries is horribleJust like how you have stopped "buying" from Russia?
At least we need not to beg like beggars or play around like fool like some particular countries who is too weak to make anything acceptable.Practically 70℅ Chinese jets are made from blueprints of Russian jets & rest are stolen from Govt paid hackers..

Even USAF import spartan C-27 transport plane from Italy? Your point? Anywhere those are small weapons. Major weapon like 5th fighter and destroyer need to be make by your own self.Fact is, you do the same and import from Russia. You can't import from west because they won't sell them to u, hence you steal.
So, not really what you are getting so worked up about?!
We are not claiming to be superior to west or Russia or to you, are we?
We have no such delusions but it looks like certain sections have some high opinions of themselves

As for work up. It's more of India having the the nerve right on The spot by us.
Look at the India media circle bragging about this and that and even India president claiming India will be superpower in 2012. As if we malign you bragging abt superiority?
Ego does not justify spending billions on an aircraft. Airforce has always been around HAL pushing for improvements and most of their requirements have been met in mk1 and the rest will be accommodated onto mk2 and it was this assurance that gave confidence to IAF to induct this machine, besides in war indigenous solutions work better than imported. IAF has realized that with SU 30MKI[/QUOTE]
Explanation is required...
Afaik mk2 programme was ditched in favour of mk1a.Thejas is emerging as a primium fighter. In last 3 years, it was shown a big improvement. AOA has reached 26*. G limit will easily cross 8.5. Timing of take off to various maneuvers are absolutely top class. Now weight reduction and aerodynamic improvement is on card. This 2 changes along with AESA and EW will make it a top class fighter. More composite is coming in body. It is going be even more stealthier. MK2 shall come with very long range. This plane is going to emerge like a mini wonder.
As if you are exempted and so as othersEverybody has enough chunk to not to beg but only one does steal.
Afaik mk2 programme was ditched in favour of mk1a.
1) when did we use mki in war
2) in which war we used indigenous weapon in conflict,and turned it to be superior over imported ones
