Yeah, they placed that for a non ski jump equipped carrier. Once again, your claims about MiG-29K and contemporary performance on a ski jump carrier are un-substantiated.
While that alone makes this argument with you irrelevant, your comments regarding weaponry are dubious. If India requires, Zhuk-AE can be retrofitted making the radar disadvantage non-existent. Further, MiG-29K has performance superiority over the SH in quite a few flight regimes and areas.
The difference between you and I is I don’t claim MiG-29K superiority over all other naval fighters, but simply point out that your sweeping remarks about MiG-29K performance when compared to your beloved SH are wrong. When looked at a cost-effectiveness stand point, well, that certainly does not favor the SH.
