US to allow India to manufacture state of the art exclusive fighter jets (F-16s)

[Rollno21]

The only problem is that India has promised to buy a whopping 108 fighters in return to block 8 F-16 sales to Pakistan.

This is a huge price to pay. As they say hate makes one go blind.



F-35 is not available for sale to India. It is the F/A-18s that are competing with RAFALEs for the Naval fighter contract.

From Where did you get that we promised them 108 fighters to block the 8 f16,our Indian diaspora is more than enough to influence that,in case you dint know the 8 F16 where not blocked for Pakistan ,they where just asked to pay for them from their own pockets

 

[Kopa Shamsu]

No. I am not joking. That is the number of fighters that are planned to be procured by India from LM.

I wish you all the very best.
Hope to see those fighters playing at next hero super league.

Indians may not be stupid but greed of Indians make them act sinister. Politicians only care about themselves not about India.

F-16s have always been state of art. Pakistan's F-16s with AIM-120s still give nightmares to IAF.

Lol..You cant fathom Indian stupidity when it comes to hating Pakistan.
They have made big promises to Lockheed for blocking sales of F-16 to Pakistan.
Now Lockheed are a business entity and need sales. Their F-16 production lines and staff employed there are idle and ot making anything. The sales of F-16 to Pakistan was their big hope which India took away. Now Lockheed is basically asking for compensation.
You blocked our sales, now here, take the F-16 and make us some money. thats what Lockheed are saying

How sure are you that Pakistan can use her existing F-16s against India if this deal goes through? That leaves JF-17 as the most advanced fighter in your inventory? Who looks stupid now?

its time is almost over sir . jets were made for 30-35 years and i did not see future of f-16 next 20 years . yes f-16 served us well defended our skies from 1984 till 2010 but now its not something state of the art . future is stealth .

Lol..India is now stuck after they "Successfully" blocked the sales of F-16 to Pakistan.
Now Lockheed is basically asking India to compensate for the financial losses caused to them by India by blocking the sales of their product to Pakistan.

F-16 for Hindustan sounds perfect to me LOL

Sir,

The future may be stealth but how many such fighters would developing countries like India and Pakistan afford?

India is even having tough time finding money to procure 4th generation fighters like RAFALEs in good numbers and had to cut down the numbers drastically.

Thanks

This is an old proposal from LM which proposes to sell F-35 post 2030, contingent upon India procuring 100+ F-16 now.

front line will be stealth in next 20 years . its my 2cent . they will buy batch by batch like 12-18 or 24 .

for example PAF F-16 deals
Peace Gate I 40 f-16
Peace Gate II 34 f-16
Peace Gate III 11 f-16
Peace Gate IV 60 f-16
Peace Drive 18 f-16


delivered or not but plan was simple batch by batch i think both can afford like this way
