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.

It's flying over Indian territory. 360 is not needed. Front is also not needed. Lots of ground radars can provide it picture. What is needed is the ability to see as deep as possible in the 240 degree set. Hoping they can mount a bigger unit on the A319 and it can accommodate bigger generators if ne...

I don't understand why you would go from intel to powerpc and add extra little and big endian testing to the mix... I guess it's a movement forward and hopefully they are not using the oldish powerpc heat generators. They were terrible with heat management. It is probably a wind river setup for sure...

Time to encourage them to go support their causes!

Dang, 20 years later to powerpc! I first heard about it in 2005 when working at the group that put an ad out touting the processors for Indian defense needs and had a flying image of LCA.

If Dassault makes it, then the value produced in the country is very low. There is no addition to the learning curve. There is no curve at all. It needs to go to HAL that can capitalize on the next gen aircraft and can learn a few things and make improvements. The private player value chain is just ...

Cybaru

True, but if you look at how the US defence industry adds an extra price for a widget, it may be possible. Either way, bottom line is that our current approval process takes way too long as it is designed currently.

Cybaru

HAL should themselves add additional planes at the same or somewhat reduced prices in every contract they sign so that price negotiations don't take this long. If there is no change in structure, then it becomes easy.
