Hmmm considering Russia’s GDP is oh 1.46 trillion USD and India’s 1.53 trillion while China’s is 5.87 trillion, I don’t see why the PLAAF couldn’t afford to buy twice as many J-20’s as PAK-FA’s. I realize my intial count of 600 was probably a little low, better bump that up to a 1000. :dev2:
Uh-huh. Make sure to bump this thread in 20 years, when China still doesn’t have 600 J-20s.
TR1, could you give us a general ballpark estimate of RuAF’s future fleet, fighters, transports, AEW and all in the rus aviation thread ?
Sure, I’ve been meaning to do that. PAk-FA numbers are hard to estimate keep in mind, but I am very certain the final number will be considerably over 150.
And I know that in the next 20-25 years the F 35 is going to make most of you look really silly when it knocks over Russian fifth/4++ gens over during an American military adventure somewhere.
Uh huh, why don’t you talk when this actually happens.
I dont know if the F-35 potential customers are broke, what does that make the PAKs customers other than india and russia they dont have 2 pennys to rub together. and america alone will buy more F-35 than russia and india will combined.
Obviously- neither Russia or India have the absurd level of defense spending the US does. No problem with it too. 🙂
