Of the IAF's A-50EI PHALCON AWACS already in service:pictures of that plane ? anyone ?!
The Ex-CoAS Tyagi said the Il-76's are a burden to maintain.
He said that if it(The IAF) were an Airline,it'd become bankrupt!
He said the same about the MiG-29(Citing the German AF chief's comment about the sale of the German AF's MiG-29 to Poland for one Euro each).
He also mentioned that Russian aircraft are cheap to procure but cost a bomb to operate.

Any comments?
Greenpine is not supposed to be airborne. Just like Greenpine is ground based system, Phalcons are airbornes. 2 different systems.
If u look they need more maintenance and not available flightsThey are not happy with the Russian after sale support, not with the aircrafts itself. The tanker was not selected, because it offers clear disadvantages to modern tanker designs, at far higher operational costs.

So if the report is believed to be correct ... the overall fleet strength will be (3 + 3) OR (3 + 2 + 3) ???
