What's the IAF going to do with 90 unarmed Avengers?

Shiv Aroor isn't a great source.

He is when it comes to US related news, not sure if he is paid by them.

90 Avengers are overkill, we need more money to invest in Ghatak.

True, he is very much in the US "fold", he is certainly indirectly paid by them I know that for sure.


The Avenger and Ghatak aren't even in the same catergory at all. Again, I don't see the value in these unarmed UAVs, the Heron-TP that the IAF/IA already operate are enough for the ISR role, at least the Guardian can be armed.

Avenger C is an armed drone. But not the MQ-9B.
