Lockheed unveils new F-21 fighter jet configured for India

[Whirling_dervesh]

Please India by this milk in India plane

Isn't this inferior to Tejas MK1? looks like a rebranded 70s F16 that the US is trying to dump onto India.

Please India by this milk in India plane

We shouldn't be taking the piss anymore companies like Lockheed Martin are willing to design a plane from scratch to cater to India's needs that is a serious issue and we should not take this lightly need to revamp our procurement of capable aircraft's long with TOT deals to be signed with major friendly companies

indian pilots will crash any good jets due to their incapability and poor training even f35 will crash in indian hands .Su30 is good plane but its crashes are higher in india due to poor training of their pilots and maintenance staff

this isn't even block 70.

Specifically configured for the IAF, the F-21 provides "unmatched" Make in India opportunities and strengthens India's path to an advanced airpower future,

but who will fly them. as per indian airforce experience. they should higher pakistani pilots. they don’t know how to drive a car. how thy will fly high tech jets.. it is proven saying in arabs don’t let indian drive cars. in arabs when indians get driving license. they keep it in home for a year and they don’t drive the car for year to afraid of accidents lol..

Ofc, There is an urgent need. But did you think about the logistical nightmares arise due to the sheer numbers and variety of aircraft in the arsenal?

Rafale is almost done... very rare chances of EF... Price will decide... searching for one of my old post where I have provided details...

Only EF and Rafale are in race... and price the only deciding factor... currently consortium offer is very attractive...

If the Rafale storm was not created by RaGa... we could have been talking about the status production line today...

Are you serious ?

 

[randomradio]

You haven't factored in 2+ decades it might take!

Even though a combat configured LCA with the definitive engine only took 3 years to test?

F-21? It looks like a F-16 to me.

What Apple is doing with the iPhone, Lockheed is doing with the F-16

 

[rambro]

Almost F-22 lol
Nice naming.

Where is tejas the supposed backbone of IAF

Are you serious ?

it is true.. bas on my personal experiencia. first year of license can be in trouble.. their driving total crap.. in other hand most of heavy transportation belong to parkistans. driving and flying is in pakistanis blood..

They played it smart and bought the rafale the last time, the moment India buys a fighter jet from the US it instantly pushes Russia to sell fighters to Pakistan.
