Modi is preparing the ground for procuring F-35s.
Single engine, Twin Engine, Super Sukhoi programs have all been scrapped.
In the next few weeks he is going to scrap the FGFA (PAK-FA/SU-57) program with Russia.
Once FGFA is scrapped, US would be providing the formal proposal for selling F-35s to India.
There would be no ToT and the fighters would be procured through FMS route to expedite the procurement.
India would be procuring
--126 F-35As for IAF's New MMRCA program
-- 57 F-35C & F-35B for Indian Navy's MRCBF program
26 F-35Bs for INS Vikrant (STOBAR+ STOVL)
31 F-35C for INS Vishal( (CATOBAR with EMALS)
