LiveFist - The Best of Indian Defence: Dhruv, Tejas Replace Super Hornet In AeroIndia 2011 Publicity Material

I posted here a few weeks ago about the Defence Ministry's rather peculiar decision to depict the Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet (a contender in the Indian MMRCA competition) as part of official publicity and logo material for AeroIndia 2011. Well, I don't know if someone reacted to my post (!), but the latest is that they've done away with that -- and replaced it with the theme depicted above: an ALH Dhruv from the IAF Sarang display team and an LCA Tejas along with a GSLV rocket. Oh well. The next edition of AeroIndia takes place from 9-13 February 2011.

No govt enterprise should advertise any private or foreign systems on its publicity material, specially when its competing for a deal.

Do you think that it was changed because it was unfair to other 5 contenders?

+maybe this designer in the govt knows something we don't! (Only dreaming)

Did anyone notice, there has been a new 'for the first time DM is going to look at "life cycle" costs' circulating in news articles?

I am thinking that is to justify the purchase of the Super Hornet.
