If you Buy from russia then it cost 40mil. HAL going Total indigenisation on su30 so it cost 20mil simple as that.

A second Sukhoi Su-30MKI from the Indian Air Force has crashed.


November 30: A second Sukhoi Su-30MKI from the Indian Air Force (IAF) has crashed, following the loss of the first on April 30 this year.

In this latest loss, both crew members successfully ejected without serious injury and the aircraft came down in the south-west of Pokhran at 17:30, according to an official press release. It had just become airborne from Jodhpur Air Force Station on a routine flying training sortie, taking part in exercises at Pokhran, reported the Times of India newspaper.

The newspaper also says it is the 13th aircraft lost by the IAF this year, making it the worst “in recent times” with 25 personnel killed, and that the air force is considering grounding the Su-30 fleet pending an investigation, although this has not been confirmed by official sources.

The news article does not says anything about the price of the local Su-30 by HAL.

And the 20M figure is very very hard to believe for such a huge advanced fighter aircraft, even if it is local production.

IAF will eventually acquire a total of 230 Su-30MKI. Out of these 90 will be made in Russia by Irkutsk Aircraft Production Association (IAPO) while the rest will be produced in India by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL). Production might be increased if necessary. HAL chairman Nalini Ranjan Mohanty has said that the Indian-built Su-30s will cost only about $22.5 million a unit against the current import price of about $37.5 million that the Indian-built Su-30s will cost only about $22.5 million a unit against the current import price of about $37.5 million

IAF fleet of Sukhois: GROUNDED AGAIN for the 2nd time within 6 months.


IAF Grounds All Sukhoi Fighter Planes After Jaisalmer Crash

Two days after a Sukhoi fighter jet crashed, the second this year, the Indian Air Force has grounded its entire fleet of 100 SU-30 aircraft.

"Following the crash at Jaisalmer in Rajasthan on Monday, the IAF has stopped flying all its Sukhoi planes and is conducting precautionary checks on each of the aircraft," an IAF official said in New Delhi on Wednesday.

A Sukhoi fighter jet had crashed during a routine training sortie south-west of Pokharan firing ranges. The two pilots, Wing Commander Srivastava and Flight Lieutenant Arora had bailed out to safety.

The previous Sukhoi crash took place on April 30 this year near Jaisalmer, killing Wing Commander P S Narah and leaving Wing Commander S V Munje injured.

The two Sukhoi crashes this year are among the 13 air crashes the IAF suffered in the last 11 months.

IAF currently has five operational Sukhoi squadrons. It aims to have at least 280 Sukhoi fighters in its fleet

One wonders what would have happened if during the Mumbai Fiasco the intruding SU30 would have crashed in Pakistan...
Coming to these two crashes I think it may have to do something with the TVC...after all IAF must be devising tactics for TVC use as well.

if its anything like the Mig-21 problem, it could be due to inferior non-OEM spares from former soviet countries
