F-16 vs F/A-18 hornet

From where the hell u heard that Americans are ready for a full ToT in case of F-18, they are not even ready for ToT in case F-16 & ur dreaming about ToT of F-18

Do you happen to have inside information about the yankees' denial for ToT in the MMRCA deal? If thats the case why are they still in the running?
The whole MMRCA deal is, apart from an attempt by the IAF to slow rapidly depleting squadron levels, basically about latest technology we can buy. If anyone refuses, gtfo and say goodbye to $10 billion!! The only bone of contention with US fighters is 'full' ToT on the latest AESA radars, US agrees to partial ToT on radar tech.

i have also posted link to prove this in my previous post. Here it is again.Indian MRCA competition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 
Wiki is a bad source u know that
Gubbi i m saying that there will be no full ToT in case of F-18 & as u said only partial ToT, there is nothing like full ToT even in case of MKI Al-31 is still coming from Russia, anyways stick to the topic...

Actually there is no such thing as Total TOT. No country is that stupid to give blue prints of their years of research. Business is one thing but Yankees know this very well that if they can engage India for a long term bases they will have many MRCAs in future but if they provided every bit of how to do SH then it will be a different story.

I think Engines and Radars things will be coming from USA. Just look which Radar and Engine Israel was able to get from USA. None, so Indian must stop dreaming about 100% TOT of a plane like Super Hornet.
 
US never give full tech but case is different here,$USD 12 is not small amount for any company and we have other four option too...
 
What you think US care more about 12 Billion than Israel?? Pardon me, had that be the case Arab would have solve this issue a long before in Middle East. They have many 12 Billion Dollars
 
India has good relation with Israel,see we have both dollars and Israel..
 
Full tot or not there will be no maintainence problem or problem of spare parts.

So does Israel itself :azn: Still I don't see any full TOT. Only history will tell who has who my dear. Don't be so judgmental so early.

but tot is india's prime condition if they will not agree for tot then we can go for gripen,rafale or mig-35 with full tot. But i think they will agree for sure.
 
Sadly, I only foresee a partial ToT. I know India is being mesmerized by the Yanks but just take a lesson from us yaar and don't think it wont happen to you.


But since we are on the topic of the MRCA, please tell me, has the Rafale been eliminated from the competition? And what about the Gripen? Does it fit the operational doctrine of the IAF?

B.T.W: These are just questions. Please dont feel that I am flaming. (You never know how someone might interpret them).

More than fighter aircraft India need technology so we have other option too,and then if f 18 sh with partial tech and guarantee of spare part and maintenance will not be bad...:cheers:
 
Two totally diff class of fighters even silly to compare there classes
