need a new engine block, this plane is already underpowered. I want us to get out of the F 16 love affair, and the only way to do that is get a sizable number of jets from another country. We have this complex where we look down on what we make ourselves, and that will not change.I would say that they might have spent around 50 mil or less to do that job----. I meter larger wing----and other modifications.
so to pacify the Air force, every cent from the air force budget that can be squeezed, every bit of cash that can be scampered from the budget should be put towards the J 10. Only when we get 2 squadrons plus will our dewy eyed obsession with the F 16 and it's sanction loving owners end.
Handle Nepal before you go around lecturing other nations. Our relations with the Saudis are strong, and they will not be weakened by the efforts of India. Our links to the royal family, our sacrifices and our brotherly love will not decrease because of Indian influence. There is a reason they are our biggest importer of small weapons and it a country full of Pakistani expats.Ah yes I understand the frustration you have when China does move close to India but don't worry you still have the Saudis (oh wait )
Yes, which is why you are giving your bases to Americans to use. Wonderful analysis, wonder what is left. They are giving you development projects because they want to earn money from you, and they want to grow their economy and reap the benefits of the Indian economy growing also. The amount of reserves that India has, it is very weird that they are giving incentives to others to develop their country and reap the rewards. The amount of return will be tremendous and the information gained about India and its working priceless.See being part of the G20, Shanghai pact and BRICS (we set-up the Asian bank together) is hinting to you already that we are coming together on many global issues.
