So, lots of deadly beasts (Su-30MKI, MiG-29 and Mirage 2000) and lots of ageing beasts too.

Can't for the finalization of MRCA order. Another deadly beast in India's kitty.

Is IAF to induct MiG-31 Foxhound in their armoury????

I love MiG-31 and MiG-29 Fulcurum

KIT Over n Out

Indian Airforce has got aircrafts from almost every significant producer of the fighter planes except USA, and i am sure after MRCA contract is finalized it will have those too.

so Indian airforce would be the only airforce in the world which would be enjoying the luxury of almost every technology in the world of aviation.

pitty on MiGs which looked formidable fighters before the introduction of SU-30 MKI, but now, no one even pays attention to their existance.

i wonder what would happen to MiG family after the induction of MRCA.

that significantly increased the cost of maintenance. basically you simply won't be able to come up with any standardized procedure that can be applied to all these fighters/bombers.

one of the major reasons for such choice is to get "under the table" kick back money from as many vendors as possible. the interests of the nation is used to trade for the interests of the officials.

That's not true. India has been rapidly modernizing the MiG-29s and currently mulling an order of 27 MiG-29Ks for INS Vikramaditya and IAC.

All new modernized MiG-29s will be able to deploy R-77RVV-AE (AA-12 Adder) air-to-air missiles and most importantly will be fitted with new RD-33 series 3 turbojet engines, Phazatron Zhuk-ME radars and will have in-flight refueling ability.

There is no doubt that the Su-30MKIs overshadows the MiG-29s, but the MiGs are still an important component of IAF's combat fleet.

I don't think "under the table" will an issue here because of the sheer amount of media interest and scrutiny. The Government cannot afford another Bofors-like scam because it would seriously jeopardize its political prospects.

Regarding maintenance costs, I think this is one of the main factors why F/A-18 Super Hornet is a strong contender even though Eurofighter Typhoon is a far more capable fighter. The Hornet provides lethal air combat and bomber ability with a proven airframe design, powerful engine and the best AESA radar anyone has to offer for a reasonable price and low-maintenance costs.

Also, in my opinion we can effectively rule out MiG-35s from the MRCA. The recent orders by IAF for more Su-30MKIs and MiG-29Ks seem to me to be an attempt by India to gratify the Russians. I must say... if that really is the case, it was pretty smart on India's part. By doing so, it will be able to keep both the Americans and the Russians happy.

And yeah... after the MRCA order is finalized, IAF will be probably the only major air force which has large numbers of latest Russian and American fighter jets in its arsenal.
