India fears China military 'gap' - Defence Management

F-16 worth every dollar in its price. F-16 is one of the most successful fighters in the world. It's battle proven, has more kills than others in modern time. The Russians sold craps to India. The Migs are falling off the sky so fast that it's beyond funny. The MKI is a big heavy turkey waiting to be shot out of the sky; it loses speed when turns. If Russian stuffs are so good, Indians don't need to buy from Europe.

The Russians make solid birds. Falling out of the skies? Yeah, maybe those MiG-21s (A.K.A "flying coffins"). But their MiG-29s and SU-30s are doing fine. In fact, the numbers, options and scope on their SU-30MKI are growing.

And then there's the HAL/Sukhoi FGFA.

I am saying this even though I personally prefer Western birds.

And as far as the F-16 goes, they rejected it (along with F-18) in favor of the Rafale and Eurofighter
