Indian Air Force Prepares 10-Year Modernization Plan

There are many alternatives for rafale , Su34,F18Sh,F16In,Mig35 etc which can fulfill requirement of IAF at much reduced cost.

Good to see you atleast know the name of platforms, care to look what Australians paid for F-18SH. F-16IN and Mig-35 are 3 decade old platforms, with only avionics upgrade over time. Su-34 is a heavy fighter, with considerably less multirole capability than MKIs, and brings nothing to our inventory which MKIs cannot already do.

This reduced cost can cost the brave pilots life who is fighting for you.

Just one like of your statement that Su34 has less multirole capability than su30 mki is enough to expose your ignorance or bigotry.

Each and every fighter i had mentioned can very well perform role efficiently as a rafale can do , don make speculative statements blah blah pilots life this and that F16 IN has many modifications over its earlier versions including engine , conformal tanks , new radar etc , same is case with mig 35 its entirely new plane built on Mig 29 design.

Rafles is chosen by IAF professionals and on there own parameters,all these craft you mention in MMRCA competition and get rejected.and also not very cheap.

i was talking about F18 SH at 80m USD per plane compared to 250m for rafale.

Rofl...one more here to vboy his knowledge..

Mate go and read first ...
Flyaway cost of rafale is 85 M and F18 SH is 65M and F18 ASH will reach 80M( only prototypes)..

And LCC of F18 SH is slightly more than rafale...
So overall F18 SH will cost approx equal to rafale..
And rafale is a better planer with newer design than F18 SH ...

I am an Indian before anything else and yes i am from a farming family
OK yes buddy

Tell me how much income tax u paid last year from the income u got from farming...
Are u sure u are not stealing from country by evading payment of income tax..
Only 3% of Indians pay income tax and that too salaried class mostly because they can't hide it...
80% of farmers don't pay a single penny and yet they can roam around in cars worth 10-15 lakhs....

And they come and talk about poverty.

Plz first do what is right and fulfill your duty to country and then come here and tell that India should feed poor people.

That is too much, you can't understand problems of farmers nor you try.
How much is income tax from all taxes?
Income tax in India
I myself worked in my farm & I know problem, you can't even imagine problem, do you know how much do we save in a year?
What do we eat?
It's good to get military hardware but saying such funny things never acceptable.
Our income is such that you can't imagine we don't get anything from farming, usually there is always drought in Rajasthan & my family goes daily for MGNREGA, I take loan for study.
It's not just about our family but for many.
My younger sister had an offer to study in a good private school(as school wanted to show her result to other students) & she is child & didn't accept offer said I will not go because I will get a laptop if I will study in govt school.
If she would have studied in pvt school surely she would have topped district if not state.
I usually didn't complete my homework because I didn't have pen & notebook to complete homework on time.
I didn't tell these things to anyone in personal life but as this is anonymous forum I can tell.
I studied for just one year in pvt school(as didn't give fee), do you know what happened?
Selected in IIT in first attempt, first from my village.

Leave these keyboard warriors who are no more than well frogs , neither they have seen even handgun in their life nor they can understand basic of farming , may be they wish to eat jet fuel and bvr missiles in dinner , explaining anything to them is like playing fluet in front of a buffalo , so dont waste energy on them buddy

NEW DELHI: The Indian Air Force has prepared a 10-year modernisation plan that identifies technologies and services that it requires and is set to share it with the private sector. But just 10-15% of the over Rs 2.5 lakh crore projected acquisitions are expected to be from domestic manufacturers.

The plan is to share details of its requirements — from aircraft tyres to rotor blades and 3D printing technology, with specific quantities needed over 10 years — to enable private sector players to set up manufacturing facilities and replace imports.

The Indigenisation Roadmap (2016-2025), which is set to be released at a CII event on Tuesday, also lists out 174 parts — from subsystems for Jaguar fighter aircraft to parts and spares for the An 32 transport fleet — that are in dire need of being indigenised.

The roadmap, a copy of which has been accessed by ET, says the concept of indigenisation is being transformed from being dependent on public sector units to "participative collaboration with Indian industry".

On the anvil are acquisition projects worth more than Rs 2.5 lakh crore, it says. "Unfortunately, only 10-15% of these are expected to be from indigenous sources as the technologies needed are not available indigenously." The report lists maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) as a major area for industry participation, as "creating a defence MRO in private sector has not only become a reality but it is also well facilitated by liberal government policies".

The areas that the private sector can contribute in MRO range from airframe and aero engines to airfield safety systems like crash tender and arrester barriers, it says. The paper suggests a cluster of industries — particularly of micro, small and medium enterprises — to be set up to meet the needs of the air force.

"There is a huge potential for indigenisation of capital equipment as well as maintenance spares in IAF.

Economic and optimal exploitation of this potential by Indian industry can lead to greater self-reliance," the paper says.

On future technologies needed, there is a detailed chapter that lists out requirements, from modern 3D printing technology to advanced weaponry and sensors where the private sector may have opportunity to collaborate.

Unless 50% indiginization is proposed it should be thrown in the dustbin

2.2 trillion economy right , do you even know how many drought effected farmers are taking their lives every day , with dire situation of agriculture , infrastructure and high poverty out nation can't afford this expensive jet , same objectives of security can be achieved at 3rd of the price.
so u mean to say money for defense procurement comes fro the fund allotted for framers and development of poors?

Sorry to see warmongers like you who in spite of nation suffering from sever drought are advocating expensive toys , nation can be defended very well even with lesser priced jets we dont have any ambitions of conquering other lands first all hungry and poor need to be attended.
why are u spending money and time on debating here ! go and work for farmers .

Spending on military & development projects in India simply can't be compared because even money allocated for development projects remains unused, last year even IR returned money which is in dire need of money.
