What's new

In exclusive deal, India to get ‘Most Advanced’ F-16 fighter jets by 2019-20

.
Gripens would come as a JV for Tejas.

SU-35s would come as Super Sukhoi upgrade.

Typhoons have been left out for Pakistan. They are too expensive for India.



There would be plants in other countries like Turkey but the LM is looking at India as its main base facility providing the new sales and upgrades to F-16s going forward.

I am sure India will find place for Typhoon as well.

Let's have 2-3 squadron of all types of aircraft. This way we can handle any type of threat .and all types of technology. Assign each squadron to states .. mini air forces within air force.

And logistics of the same, the problem thereof? Did you think this one through?

Article says LM is searching for land in india to set up the manufacturing base.
Then why is the news yet so hush hush ? Where is the offiicial announcement, official press release ?
 
. . .
This could just be a deal between Tata and LM without any MoD involvement? I mean just how foreign car manufacturers make cars in India, LM probably wants to manufacture fighter jets in India :undecided:
