IIRC the IIR seeker component was imported from France.
This must have bumped up the cost.
Any gurus can shed light if the IIR seeker is fully indigenised ?
Bulk production and indeginisation should bring down the cost

there were reports of delay in providing the modified Il-76 by the Russians.
Whatever the reasons, something which we are not aware of must have pissed off the IAF.
