ndian Air Force trainer jet deal in a limbo

That was RFP issued two years earlier, the agreement with the selected manufacturer can be a different ball game.

Actually the contract will remain almost identical to this RFP, Lord Of Gondor is right- a delay afte the 2 year mark will be a breach in contract and will result in severe penalties.

So what's your point? Yes, okay for 2/3 years for IAF to get these birds but so what? IAF training institutions are some of the best and most advanced in the world, when this plane is inducted it will only add to the training program not completely revolutionise it- this is already happening within IAF training establishment.

No 2 or 3 years, these are basic turbo prop planes will be start delivering within one year

Unlikely.Any modifications will lead to complexities.
R-F-proposals and R-F-Procurements are linked to avoid more red tapism.
