Re: Transport Aircraft for IAF

sorry without satire let me make my case - We need heavy lift capability - in very high numbers. These are all IL-76 ++ capacity aircraft (and associated range). If you look at the number, we should try indigenous effort. 1. Transportation - some 30-40 numbers ( We have 11 C-17 towards it and should...

Re: Transport Aircraft for IAF

There may never be a need to emergency airlift tanks (that need heavy capacity).

IAF then have must learned from PAF - let IA fight it’s own war.

If the women's reservation bill is going to designate 33% constituencies to women on rotation basis (like it is done for caste reservation right now), then I oppose it.
