especially this: That we can no longer depend on any foreign nations to build our own air power. Assuming that we won't be able to operate our Sukhoi fighters after the next five years, efforts must be taken to ensure that we must have the capability and capacity to design, build and operate our own indigenous designs within the next decade or so.
Be serious with KF21 then!

I was actually thinking of what comes after KF-21/IFX. In some previous posts here we've talked about what single-engined aircraft will be suitable for our F-16 replacement.

We can start with that.

Hey uncle Sam give us f35, we already operate the F15 ,ehem latest 4.5 gen like u said
I think the strategy we can use is this: Increase trade surplus with the US, then offer them to sell their dopest fighters as countertrade. They will be more eager to sell to balance their trade deficit.

There is several idea contemplating in my mind, Prabowo Subianto come with direct invitation from Saudi Arabia crown prince, MBS. Saudi is the second largest user of F15 family, and they have facilities for anything to do with their F15 fleets.
I think US, Korea or Israel can give us more comprehensive and professional training.

potential for more IND - INA cooperation via FRA:


I hope India goes for another Rafale order of 36 more (if something production wise can be worked out and leveraged well with French)....let us see.

Does Rafale join the 100+ India AF fighter programme?

Yah word on street is its downselected to Rafale vs Gripen now for that.

ruskie checkmate was somewhat late entrant, but its basically dead horse now for obvious reasons going on.

F-16 replacement.
Remove from play Hawk, F 16, T 50, replace with T5.

dunno guys, cant figure. what i try to think here how in earth we try to keep maintain 3 types of engine. even actually today we maintain 4 types. my best bet is only to keep T50 since it will have same engine with KF 21.

So LBP is okay if being called LBP.
H.E PM LBP.

Weapons? Maybe. Does India try to integrate indigenous weapons on Rafale? Does India will produce some spare parts locally?

For MRO I hope that it can be done in Indonesia, no need to go to India.
