What can HAL realistically propose for the MTA?

a) If they (MOD) work something out with the Russians regd the Il-276 at this stage which has been lukewarm process at best given India prefers western powerplant, ongoing production etc. But I guess to have a reference quote for pro/con analysis can help with both analysing and negotiating the main 2 at this stage.

b) Outside shots like the Kawasaki C-2 (unlikely). Same reasoning.

Emb have the best chance at winning but geopolitics may play out. And quite honestly C130 is not a bad one at all as well
