To abandon the LCA in favour of a 50yr old hag like the F-16,which our mortal enemy the Pakis fly,would be an act of supreme dishonesty,duplicity and make a mockery of the "make in India" mantra that hangs above the door of this supposedly pro-desi govt.We will become the laughing stock o...

200 F 35 for 15bn?Is this even possibe? It may be the best solution,but is it feasible? What about the Super Advanced Hornet?Can we afford that? F-35 and Make In India don't go together. If an off-the-shelf purchase with some workshare is what the IAF and GoI want, then F-35 would be available to I...

Bingo! The only thing it will not be a match for are 5th gen platforms, which neither the Chinese nor the Pakis are likely to get in numbers at least till 2030. The Chinese might field substantial J-20's and J-31's numbers in Tibet and their Far East airfields, but by the time those numbers are ava...

Why is the argument being made that f16 will be out of date. If we get the line, I am sure, it will be upgraded from blk 70 overtime. It will never be a f35, bUT throughout its life it will remain a significant fighter produced in volume. The Ariframe will likely remain the same.Thats a big issue i...

LM is peddling F 16 block 70 as most advance F 16.What is the super duper advancement?

Amoghvarsha

Is this where we will discuss the new Single Engine Aircraft acquisition?

Its a 2 horse race mainly. F 16 or Gripen. DOnt know why RFI was sent to MIG and Boeing.

How does the F16 block 70 and Gripen NG compare to each other?Also how does these two compare to the J10b?

How will China react to an American base in Andaman sea or American soldiers in Kargil?

Already in Paki media the narrative has shifted to something happened or they tr8ed but failed.So even their own media isnt buying this.I hope India just leaks the footage to the media esp. Some western lobby and then watch Zaheel Shareef Squirm.

Most Likely.It will all slowly trickle out over the next few weeks to months.Right now everyone wants to avoid embarassing the Paki Army.

That's expected, their bureaus are based in Islamabad. Don't expect much from CNN/BBC.

But TBH the PC was ambigous and they never said that they crossed the LOC.
