Air C.Marshal Browne confirms MiG-21 and MiG-27 to be phased out by 2019

Well I don't know the exact production rate. The last publicly known achieved production rate is 16 ac per year. There was a news/rumour that HAL step up production to 30. Nothing to verify it but last year we see induction of 2 Squds and it is most likely that we will see two this year also.
And to finish up the production order of 272 the deadline is 2017. So if we add 70 more it will be around 2020/21.


There is definitely no 30 per year production, otherwise we wouldn't have delays and as the HAL press release that I posted earier shows, the deadline for the full order is 2019.
And there is a difference in inducting 2 squadrons and producing 2 squadrons, because they were produced partially earlier, but the induction was dependent on raising the new air bases.
