No, this is not. This is what BAF is planing by 2021. This is not much but far better than what we have now.
Animelive has a point,not all on that list you posted may be true but some items there can be considered to be likely. The yak 130 is a confirmed deal and will likely be signed at MAKS 2013 in a few months, the Number itself is still under negotiations since 24 will take up a majority of the $1 billion loan unless russians lower the price for us.
T-37b will likely be placed in reserve due to age and will likely be replaced by Yak-152. F-7bg will be replaced by more modern aircraft at the time. BGI will remain at that time. However,the additional 8 Mig SMTs is debatable due to the fact we rejected them due to the £500 million dollar price tag given by russians.
Su-30 is a logical Choice due to the fact that the jf-17,j-10 and the western aircraft choices(F-16,jas gripen) have been ruled out. su-30 is a good choice(Su-30MK2 variant allows for maritime strike which will help us secure our maritime boundary) alongside other russian aircraft such as su-27 and Migs but no variant has been confirmed. Also you have stated in other thread($1bl defence deal with russia includes)that we are to receive 40 Mig 29Ms in 2019.(unlikely due to budget constraints)
Also the order for 32 such aircraft will likely be seen,earliest,2014, or the latest in 2019.
