The C295 will probably replace the AN32

Once again it looks like India is replacing a Russian system with a western type system

60 units, cost would be around $2 Billions.

This is a new news how? This was expected? C-295 name was thrown around a lot as well.

What a sad story, MTA could have done that. IAF should be bared from buying any foreign aircraft.
