For me this is a really really bad decision Not necessary Indranil..I think with this GOI has essentially scrapped the crappy MMRCA RFP that does not even allow to go to Eurofighter!

To all the gurus - Halting of AMCA project to allocate resource for LCA does not make complete sense to me. What baffles me is that both the planes are in different level of development - For LCA as we all know is in flight test program, AMCA is in early design stage. http://www.flightglobal.com/new...

rohankumaon

@kmc-chacko - Why do you think that "put on hold" is a good move? From my perspective, it is a bad move, if it had taken place. LCA and AMCA are far off in their development cycle and I would be very surprised if they really needed same skill set by the same set of personnel to work on. Mo...

you need not create a fanfair for nobel peace prize.

What I wanted to say was that appreciation of threat scenarios lead to physical deployment plan as well as number of systems required. Very valid point, makes a lot of sense!
