IAF not in favour of acquiring Russian 5th gen jets, keen on DRDO Make in India project instead

Actually India has already achieved the twin targets of LCA programs- building an industry as well as having an indigenous 4+ gen fighter.

I know that assembling a namesake 'JV' aircraft, developed with Mikoyan assistance & foreign components are a big thing for Pakistan, but we have been license manufacturing aircraft for decades.

Nothing is indigenous in LCA all tech and support came from outside India without it India was struggling to make that bird since 30 years and had failed.

58% of JFT is built in Pakistan rest came from China and then all are assembled here there are many western customize components which are fully made in Pakistan including engine high temp cables compared to one of largest economy and military we are way better.

Q 66: Which Parts of the Aircraft JF-17 are built locally?

A: Center airframe, wings, avionic structures, wiring, harness etc.

But it didn't helped you in anyway.

Several generations of IAF pilots trained on the same.
 
Excellent... DRDO can develop the prototype by 2047.
 
But we built a fourth gen fighter, so...



:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:



of the airframe, that is.

That is where you lack knowledge or Internationally trolling, due to block-3 roadmap many western systems tech have been transferred to Pakistan JFT can communicate with our western and Eastern tech AWACS can your LCA currently do that?
 
Meanwhile in India these are the tier 1 suppliers.

HAL has created five “Tier-1” suppliers that each build a part of the Tejas. The front fuselage is supplied by Dynamatic Technologies Ltd, Bengaluru; the centre fuselage by VEM Technologies, Hyderabad; rear fuselage by Alpha Tocol, Bengaluru; wings by Larsen & Toubro, Coimbatore; and the tail fin and rudder by National Aerospace Laboratory and Tata Advanced Materials Ltd.

Heck, that's more than what PAC manufactures for JF 17...
 
That's a fact, you'll know it when you actually have proper R&D in anything.

as for the bold part, I'm sure you can say the same about our Destroyers, SSBNs, Space Program, Missile Program & numerous successful aerospace programs like LCH, Dhruv, Kiran etc.



Lol, 'development partner'. How many engineers/man hours have you contributed to that program ?

The good thing about us is that we don't day dream, and then walk over a cliff like India. Pakistan partnered in the projects and all of them succeeded.

No it can't. Even when the communication system onevery aircraft in Indian service is of Indian origin. Sad, ain't it ?

:woot:

There is nothing in India of Indian origin everything is ToT fully or partially with knowledge transfer to make it look like indigenous even super Brahmos is not Indigenous.
 
After full ToT we will be making it better

really ? Your 'development partner' didn't offer you full ToT ? Now that's sad...

Man, we criticize the Russians, but look at the level of indigenization here...

Presently. HAL is manufacturing the aircraft [Su 30 MKI] from the raw material phase and till date has produced 150 aircraft. HAL has manufactured approximately 43,000 components in airframe and 6,300 components for engines. Twenty six special technologies have also been absorbed and mastered. With this, 70 per cent components are now made in India by HAL with 100 per cent technology absorption as per the contract in airframe and engine.
