nope. I perfactly translate words from one language to another and its intended meaning. Mush was differentiating between platforms and avionics.
when Grifo-S7 was radar for FC-1 with western avionic it was called medium tech aircraft now it has become high tech aircraft with Chinese systems. so that myth has already been shattered of West vs East.

offcourse there will be much better systems in the west but Current EF and advance Block 52 are equiped with Slot array radars and no fibre optics. no 3D TVC engine. and EF has already maximized its use of composites.
these all are legacy fighters. no point even considering them for the amount of money. now that is not the case of PAF.

Gr8 logic :rolleyes: .

in india even when a small cesna or a trainer crashes there is a big buzz all around ,i am 100 % sure that no su30 crashed of iaf but news coming out of china does not come with any proof,heared they lost some j10 !

Where did u heard of j-10 crash?

How can he know these figures ? Only god knows.
The problem of the IAF is that the LCA is LATE.

ATM su30s are being mfg in HAL Nashik factory. So he does know what he speaks about. Afterall he is answerable to GoI.

The figure of 21M USD per LCA came from either of ADA or HAL. And it looks fair value of the quality of product it intended.

If LCA is late in the game, than rafales & eurofighters are even more late in the game. LCA will have fc-1s & f-7 to contend with, while these two ACs will have their backside kicked by JSF. So LCA will have their worth even if they are procured in 2010, while the euro AC looks outdated even now in the above mentioned comparisons. U are as good as ur opposition lets . In India’s case LCA is good enough. This doesnt mean that LCA is better that those two AC, but India doesnt need those in our enviournment. As most of AC in paf or plaaf are dated or comparable that of IAF.

according to taiwan news paper china has lost atleast 5 su-27/30 and one is said to have crashed into mountains due bad wheather ,cannot confirm it has no news crosses the great wall of china

And none will. Autocratic countries dont let sceret news any ways. What news one gets is really speculation, nothing more.

It’s obvious.
The mirage is out ….. unless India buy the whole production line 😀

What will India gain by getting that?

Any specs of radar in development for LCA? How does it compares to the ones in bisons or other similar ACs.

Submarine is risk ,Its not for the faint hearted. If people want to take the least risk path , They can join the Airforce. Atleast they have the ejection seat to bail out in trouble.

Let them have 100 P-3C buzzing over the Arabian sea , A submarine with the right tactics can still
go in do their job and come back.

The Soviets during the Cuban Missile Crises would criss cross the heavily ASW active areas of USN with their Pidly Foxtrot , they were many Airborne and other ASW assets searching for Soviet submarine , Still they would surface in the middle of action have some chai , Biscut and dive back.

And you are telling me that PN with 10 Onions and few Hangoooor is a detterent for firing Klooob.

USN has 2500+ miles range of missiles in subs & are thought to be developing even longer range ones. This only shows that if u have the means, do similar things. Afterall arent the USN subs quietest of the lot. So whats the big reason for that? Simple avoiding the risks, b’coz both the crew & sub are valuable assets, which shouldnt be lost.
