As mentioned by @crixus Jags, M2Ks and Rafales can carry nukes Russia did modify a few Su-30s in their fleet to enable nuke capability. IAF can also do that but I don't specifically see a reason given our existing fleet and we need more air dominance fighters at the moment since it's very...

What exactly is the Chandigarh lobby?

LCA Tejas next to Su30 MKI

and L&T will own the IP i assume!!

Are you sure L&T's offering is a license manufactured K21? Since most of the recent reports were stating it's a JV between DRDO and L&T

Russian lobby will work hard with lucrative kickbacks and honey traps (something which our guys fall for all the time) for IA to favor their Sprut. While MoD did cancel other Russian projects like Ka-226, Mig-29s, Kilo class subs, Ka-31 helos, BM-21 MRLS...there are a few others like Ak-203s...

If Hanwa brochure says K9 has been extensively tested, that's enough for the punks sitting at IA. I'm glad MoD is banning imports for certain systems but they should also ensure IA doesn't take advantage of any loopholes like emergency procurements which IA will definitely utilize

Imagine if an indigenous system had to be modified similar to this! IA would cancel the whole project, brand DRDO as incompetent, raise issues of immediate threat and use emergency procurement route to get foreign systems Athos is a dumb proposal in the first place...we have the DRDO ATAGS...

First up, I don't see a reason for IA to go specifically for additional K9s' except for their love of foreign maal and scuttling like headless chickens when faced with a thread and end up spending exponentially more than what they could actually get these systems for. These artillery guns from...

With the number of American sub-systems going in Gripen, it's not any different from getting a complete US platform like the F-16

These artillery guns from Kalyani were under testing last year Bharat 52 Marg T (desi m777 ) Truck mounted Marg T Garuda 105

American engines are even an issue for us since our current LCA Tejas uses GE-404 while 3 future fighter jet programs under development will be using the GE-414. I'd say go for a similar route like us where we are collaborating with France's Safran to develop an engine which suits our current...

The irony lol
