I am not assuming rather going by Indian govt. actions both after 2019 Indian air attack as well as this time. Your officials are the first to call for 'de-escalation', and they look so petrified knowing they have stirred Pakistan armed forces. This time, they went so far as to abstain from attacking military targets assuming Pakistan would take civilian casualties lying down and not counter.
there are enough threads to discuss air war. Spare this one. @Fatman17I am not assuming rather going by Indian govt. actions both after 2019 Indian air attack as well as this time.

I thought it was one per month, that also starting from the end of this year, which could technically translate to the start of 2026(?)
Most of the money ( except Engine+ radar and some parts) will go back to GOI.INR 62,000 crore is $7.1 billion. That's $73 million per jet!
It is still a multi million (effort) dollar airplane. Too expensive too late....
That's a dumb question from someone who spends a considerable time on a defense forum.
Really? How? Do you have a cost breakdown of the jet?
Govt will get back around 11,600 Cr out of 63,000 Cr in GST alone. ( If we calculate at the flat rate of 18%).
We should have atleast 2-3 Sqd by now and TD/LSP of MK2 flying !!
I am quite curious on how those folks lining up for the photo op could keep a straight face.
