Those copied Js are not better than Russian SUes.

But you people are just crying all over this forum that Russian shit is JUNK.
Those J's are redesigned with upgrades and modifications YO !

12 is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ). Please read about MOQ.
In case of HAL, 12 Sukhoi is its annual production rate and hence MOQ.

Also no pilots died in that accident.

Again, your BS is laughable, Indonesia ordered tiny batches of SU-30s, as did Uganda and Belarus. Before asking people to "read up" maybe follow your own advice?

Su-30 will get upgraded with aesa uttam is already in works aspj pods rudram etc just needs a new EW suite

While people are debating over the merits of Russian fighter aircraft it appears that they've missed some pretty important leaks.

South Asia is witnessing quite a lot of EW activity. Both India and China have Integrated Air Defence Systems with various types of Radars, sensors, SAMs and AWACS. China is known to have dedicated EW aircraft and Anti-Radiation Missiles which are integrated with their fighter aircraft. They have potent ECM equipment onboard the fighters in addition to a large number of Ground based EW Regiments.

The IAF over the years has gained considerable experience in generating effective active ECM techniques, as the IAF has Fighters, Radars and SAM systems of diverse origins in its inventory. Most of the weapon systems with China are of similar design and we have been able to refine our EW techniques based on our knowledge of their systems. Since we participate in bilateral exercises with many Air Forces of the world, we therefore consider ourselves to be experienced in operating in a real EW environment.

It appears that the rumors were true...

All people criticizing Soviet Junks should also realise one important thing, no western countries (except France) especially America would not have sold us any advance military equipments until mid 2000s. And also how weak our economy was at that time we couldn't have afford them anyways even if offered. We had no choice back in the day. The only way to compete against Pakistan armed with advance American weapons was to buy Soviet machines. The lesson learnt during 65 war where we had nothing that could stand up against PAF F104 Starfighters.

Indeed, the policy decisions of the time were based on practical considerations. It was not like India had options to choose from.

Then why you on a forum making BS claims dude?

 

[GumNaam]

all of a sudden the "raptor of the east" is deficient?

the deficiency is not the aircraft, but what is sitting inside the aircraft!

Then why you on a forum making BS claims dude?

Sukhoi upgrade gains urgency amid worries over Russian spares

Officials in the defence establishment have raised concerns about the ability of Russian companies to provide a steady supply of parts and spares for the fighter fleet, given stringent sanctions that have been imposed following the Ukraine offensive.

The Russian conflict has shaken the Indians to much of an over reaction.

This is another tragedy for IAF. Based on what I've read recently, Russia has already closed its tank factories. Seems like their defence industry depends on Western supply chain a lot for manufacturing. Even if China were to fill some of the dependencies, can India really rely on weapons that depend so much on China for their own manufacturing?

Despite all Putin's bravado, the sanctions are going to toast a number of Russian defence manufacturers. India will be hit sideways along with it

I just wish the Indian navy was as shitty as the Indian Airforce. Had they not launched thier own programmes, they too would have been begging France for the FREMM and Russia for more Admiral Gorshkov class. Likely wouldn’t have had any destroyers either. Indian navy was smart with the Barak-8 and Brahmos development.
