1.6 lac crores is close to $20.6bill1.6b$
The US Nimitz class carriers cost over $11bn each and 3 carriers for 1.6 lakh cr which is over $20bn is still a lot for a country like India. Moreover, I don't think US would offer EMALS tech unless we procure F-18 for IN or F-16 for IAF and I am highly skeptical they would offer significant ToT for those jets except for some nut and bolt job.It doesn't sound much if it is going to equip EMALS and AAG from US.

If it is true, how can the AC launch Rafales?I don't think US would offer EMALS tech unless we procure F-18
Rafale is STOBAR compatible but not with full load. Maybe DRDO and IN need to work on EMALS/CATOBAR by the time our next AC's construction starts because INS Vishal is most likely to field Mig-29'sIf it is true, how can the AC launch Rafales?
Does the selection of fighter process started yet?Rafale is STOBAR compatible but not with full load. Maybe DRDO and IN need to work on EMALS/CATOBAR by the time our next AC's construction starts because INS Vishal is most likely to field Mig-29's

It happens, at times we do miss out a number or twomaths was taught to me by mullah!!![]()
Its is $20.6bill at a conversion rate of 63.4/$. Do the math yourself,nobody is confused. And yes its a huge amount but it will be spread across a decade.Indian themselves are confused by their own numbering system too? By the way, it's lot of money for one carrier.
