well adding 42 of these beast will add punch to IAF, where India can dedicate 100 for Chinese threat in defensive role which will be big head ace for any offensive force sp. with Falcon +Akash + Green Pine + spider + S 300.

HAL has been steadily stepping up its Sukhoi-30 MKI delivery schedules. While last year it delivered 23 of these fighters, this year it is expected to produce 28. HAL has already supplied 74 of these fighters.
Rs 15,000 crore Sukhoi deal cleared - India - The Times of India
If true , this is the best news , Proves India Can manufacture more than one squadron a year.
23 per year , is a far cry from the 8 a year when they first started.
HAL needs to keep up the Pace.
And IAF will need to maintain the pace of induction as well.
well i was thinking the other way also...that if we can make a heavyweight jet like su 30mki at a rate of 23 per year then why not < =30 tejas a year !!!!
dont u guys feel like this ???
HAL is producing SU-30 28 per year because they have to produce ~200 of them...If the same no. of LCA is going to be inducted and IAF is fully committed to this then HAL wont have any problem in opening another production line..
However i think they want to take it slow. so as to incorporate new techs. being developed in new batches...

ur best air sup fighters are not put for defence missions during wartime ! mmrca or tejas will do the job....most probaly tejas bcoz it will be a shroter range , low cost ,low maintainence fighter that can be effectively put on defensive missions .. su 30 will do long range interdiction job !!! it can even effectively take down air to ground targets that are not lying far of border ..
I agree with you about LCA and Su-30MKI, but I feel the MMRCA winner will be used mainly for strike missions escorted by Su-30MKI and supported by tankers and AWACS. For the same reason, I feel the MMRCA tender will go to a fighter which has excellent strike capabilities (remember, the Jaguars and MiG-27s will soon be phased out).
hmm..... best available option is rafale .......i wud have gone straight for f 18 sh if it was not american jet ..... u know why.....
sigh... sigh....... kash SH american naa hota !!!!!
Anyways pretty much all aircrafts are good in AtoG role with maybe SH edging out others by a lil margin.
Still i hope IAF goes for something non american.
