Finally sense prevails.
It's raining deals for France:
AREVA
Rafale
A330 (for DRDO's AWACs)
C-295
A330 MRTT (should be signed shortly)
If Make in India is set aside, C-27J Spartan will be a better choice in terms of range and performance. Also, India operates C-130 so some commonality in spares as well.

C-27 spartan cost 53 Million $.
C-295 cost 28 Million $.
Performance of both is almost similar. Better still C-295 is going to be MAD IN INDIA.
I fail to see how C-27 is better.
Yup Hollande must be one happy President!Finally sense prevails.

I was merely talking about performance, nothing wrong in promoting your own product . Also, your country is very big so C-295 will be short legged for that. If you keep your all threats in mind then, C-295 will not be good in all aspects.
You don't know things, it would appear.
LCA's project manager was congress gov't.
Yes I would agree with you.
See how tejas has been doing since a better project manager appeared on the scene. Get the drift ?
You're preaching to the converted.
What is the estimation and what is the actual cost in purely project management perspective!LCA is already Inducted into the Air Force. Its IOC is already done. FOC will happen in the next few months and it will be the most stringent FOC any modern aircraft has gone through. Even the F-35 is not cleared to fire its gun, but is still flying with the US AF.
You know nothing of Project management so its foolish to comment on things you barely comprehend.
Well C-295s are meant to replace old Avros. For transportation of vehicles etc we will have plenty of C-17s, IL-76s, MTAs, Super Hercules etc.I was merely talking about performance, nothing wrong in promoting your own product .

Remember you are speaking with an Indian here!

Gotta love the Indian Americans that refer to India as 'their country'.
Should be ordered as a replacement of IL-38.
When is the next DAC...??

I do not think it will be used to move vehicles. It is more like a replacement for the An-32 which was cheap and can brought in large numbers. India had 125 of them. Most are scheduled to retire in the coming decades.
