Tragedy averted:

Navy says a Chetak chopper from an operationally deployed warship in the Arabian sea developed technical failure last week. Air crew managed to ditch it in the water and egressed safely. Inquiry ordered.

IAF badly needed transport aircraft to replace HS-748 and AN-32 as these types facing block obsolescence in next 5-10 years. Eventually, they might buy more of this type. The MTA capability chosen by IAF now differs greatly compared to planned Indo-Russian MTA though from Turbofan to Turboprop from ...

Rahul , I was just referring to the fact that IAF has upgraded even 80's and 90's procured Mirage and Mig-29 so upgrading a late 90's procured Airframe should not be a concern , IAF has already exchanged the oldest of MK bought from Russia after using most of its life but after overhaul in Irkut thi...

Austin

Rahul , As far has airframe life goes , We have upgraded all the Mirages-2000 airframe and Mig-29 except those that got crashed. And both these airframes are atleast a decade or decade and half older than MKI. So they can always upgrade the airframe and make its life to zero , The current Mirage and...

with a very large RCS, "hiding" is not an option for the su30, it has to use brute power and EW to fight its way around. Singha there is considerable work done to reduce the RCS of Flanker aircraft for 2 decades now, There was a famous Bill Sweetman write up on AW&ST on that quoting I...

Electronics today make up for most of the cost of the aircraft ( roughly 60 % ) followed by the engine ( 25 % ) and other things. IF Ajai Shukla is to be believed ( I tend to take his write with a pinch of salt ) IAF has set the cost of upgrade per aircraft at 100 cr , Each Sukhoi cost around 430-45...

Lets say against ship its perhaps a valid argument because a larger ship like Destroyer of over 7000 T a larger blast would help to create damage over larger area compared to a missile boat or corvette.
