P-8I makes more sense at those prices! It can also cover far more ground. Three to four C-295s equal one P-8I. This is twice as expensive as the P-8I. It probably makes sense at ₹800 - ₹1000 crore or so. Nothing more.

One would think he C295 would be 1/3rd the cost, given the platform is 1/3rd the price and has less space and power. Hoping they added like a ridiculous 10 year maintenance and that is why the number is out of whack. Hopefully people can ask what the breakout looks like and why it's so expensive.
