I don't think IAF operates any other legacy MIGs excwpt Bisons...Philip wrote:But we still have around 5 to 6 sqds. of legacy MIGs of various types to replace.This can best be done through extra nos. of types in service,MKIs,MIG-29s,Rafales,etc.
I often see this "TE LCA Mk2" in your posts...Another news report said that the TE LCA Mk-2 would fly by 2023,series production starting by 2026. Since most of the systems,etc. would be similar to the Mk-1A, no LSP nos. would happen,straight tp series production. This would take over from 1A production. If these plans take-off on schedule and with no great cost escalation, then MMRCA 2.0 can be dispensed with.
The letters TE are often used for Twin Engine on this forum... But LCA Mk2 is Single Engine... Or did you mean something else by TE...???
