When it comes to defending the Indian air space I'm.beginning to think we better start ordering some serious numbers of both the Rafale from France and Su57mki or F35 lightening from USA ...
I just can't see Tejas or Amca coming in the numbers and in the time schedule they keep suggesting
I can see an indian air force by 2040 made up of
Rafales 100+
Su57 Mki 50+
Su30mki 250+
With token number of 100 Tejas only mark 1a
With Tejas mark 2 scrapped and Amca in flight Testing still now where ready to enter service ...
Some old vintage Mirage 2000/mig29 still.making another 100 planes with only 50% availablity rate as they would obselete
India's biggest mistake was selecting a petite airframe. Its like shoving briyani plate inside of a samosa and expecting great results. Mirage size platform would have been better choice.
