For all practical purpose, P17A is a destroyer. No puny primary or secondary radar. DDG style full TFTA MF-Star and a meaty search radar. IN must have realized there is no point making two design for frigate & destroyer, given the time our shipyard take to built them. It is better to build a si...

Karan, in Pakistan, the defence services are the decision makers, unlike in India. There is nobody to overrule them or tell them we can't afford what you want, or that you can't just buy something without going through a process or the manufacturer you are looking for has been blacklisted. There is...

If they are not buying more are they giving some feedback as to what needs to be improved for a block 2 version of Netra ? This is extremely disappointing for scientist who have put in a lot of effort in developing this. This type of attitude will also discourage private sector in getting involved i...

Even the upgraded Mirages and 29UPG dont have a PESA/AESA , IAF has opted for Slotted Array for even its premium aircraft Mirages. They don't have options. The Russians didn't have an AESA when the MiG-29 Upg was signed and the Mirage aircraft upgrade was so expensive we opted for the less expensiv...

I would add upgrade IRST along with Irbis-E (Prefer a 2000 TR modules GaN AESA radar instead though). Is any country fielding a GaN based FCR yet? Our LCA Tejas could have been one of the first to feature GaN AESA radar but ... (see below) From 2015: https://saabgroup.com/media/stories/stories-list...

Also allows IAF fighters to engage *RF optimized* stealth fighters at near-BVR ranges (30km+) also low flying cruise missiles etc which cannot use clutter to avoid RF missile shots. Its arguably the only missile (apart from the Mica-IR) which can assist the IAF in the LO opponent scenario. The Mica...

Where is the AESA radar ? If we were living in dream world I wish we can execute Jaguar MAX on MKI and add Meteor BVRAAM to it.

If there is anything that Donald Trump has taught the world, is that the United States is the most unreliable and untrustworthy ally to have. Buy what is needed, but keep the Americans at an arms length. Donald Trump will not be President forever and the next President will likely be a Democratic o...

Guys lets take Submarine talk to appropriate thread and leave this for Rafale discussions.

Sumeet

Any idea what is the specific enhancement we have requested in IRST of Rafale ? Also, jammer pod is news to me, Rafale has fully internal comprehensive EW system. IRST would be whatever is the latest version of the Optronique Secteur Frontal (OSF). Jamming Pod is confusing to me as well. Should not...

Sumeet

Spectra EW and Jamming pod are probably two separate units hopefully. Spectra may be used to manage radar emission and classifications locally(on a per plane basis). It may comprise of minimal radar cancellation tech, to help the aircraft fare better when being painted by another aircraft, or if a ...

My best guess is 114 Rafale. It is a very costly buy for us. But if we are, buying 114 F-35 will give us dominance in west and north for some 30 years and price maybe same. Not happening due to S-400 Also because of issues like ToT, local production (even at screw driver giri level), sharing of rad...

+1 Suresh sir It is indeed needed that we have a good number of squadrons of these top line aircrafts backed by DRDO Netra and Phalcon AWACS. Rafale is an excellent piece of technology and it will keep us ahead in the technology game. IAF is not wrong if they have penchant for possessing the best in...

Sumeet

If its Uttam AESA we can integrate Meteor BVRAAM instead of I-Derby ER to complement ASTRA.

If its El/M 2052, Meteor will not be integrated.

Sumeet

It makes no sense to announce another 36 aircraft deal while MMRCA contest is on. Either that gets scrapped and new Rafale deal is signed. Having both Rafale + MMRCA (different from Rafale) makes no sense from logistic point of view.

Sumeet

At every occasion when someone higher up from France visits India or vice versa this news always comes up. There is no point in buying another 36 since that order will directly come from Dassault and will not benefit indigenous industry. If IAF wants more Rafales (which I think we definitely should ...

Who cares about them ? This is India's internal matter not subject to any foreign country/institution intervention.

It was mentioned in this video around 2:45 mins that Su-30 also has escort jamming capabilities against Surveillance radar. Can anyone elaborate on which pod we use here ? I wasn't aware of escort jamming capability of MKI.

Sumeet

One thing I didn't understand, we started off with El-8222 Jammer and then why did we move to Russian SAP-18 jammer instead of wide band jammer from Elta family ?

$15-20 Bn for the aircraft alone likely.. We should be ready to pay that much money in next 12-15 years. From his twitter thread: Ninjamonkey ‏ @Aryanwarlord 1h1 hour ago Yes, also note that the GOI will be a 50% partner so it will essentially be paying itself ~$5-10Bn. Afaik Dassault has committed...
