Mirage2000-v,the LCA and the Su-30 MKI

There have been reports of India being in talks with the French for purchase of 126 M2000-v’s . These are deemed necessary to keep up force levels and for expansion. The LCA is also expected to enter the production phase around 2006-7 period. With the Su-30 MKI’s around and the LCA expected in a few years time is it wise to go in for the M2000-v’s to? Would it better to wait for the LCA and buy some more MKI’s from Russia. What advantage would the M2K give the IAF over the LCA keeping in mind the fact the MKI is present to perform the duties of a longer range and a heavier load that the LCA might lack. Is the M2k superior in anyway to the Su-30MKI or the LCA? A clean comparision of the three please and the roles they will perform with the IAF.

Cheers.
