This clueless Gernail is proposing to buy Su57 to fight J21,J35 and J36 etc. when asked for a reason by host, he was talking commonality with Su30 and Russia being involved in war, making it-combat proven.
Watch your step, that's an extra 10 years in development hell. Don't give them any ideas.
Careful my friend, some MoD importkhor dalal baboo + some gernail might have a word with you someday if you call em out about importmaxxxing .My problem is not imports per se
It is capability gap of the forces viz adversaries in terms of numbers, leave tech aside, because of back and forth and tug of war between chindi/IDDM pushing Govt and import-loving Voldemorts wanting bulk orders of foreign toys.
Voldemorts know the Govt is chindi and will not give them the expensive imports in large quantities they want, but instead of making their peace with this like the Navy did many decades ago and start designing/developing/purchasing whatever they need from within the country, they are busy stonewalling existing projects like Tejas or ATAGS or MGS or whatever else.
So that the Govt is forced to consent to Imports, ofc this scheme to "force" the Govt doesn't work and neither the Govt's scheme to force IDDM on Voldemorts, and the winners of this are Pakistan and China.
A peace deal between Govt and Voldemorts can be a piece meal procurement of the allegedly HiGh TeCh and PrOvEn imports in exchange for large orders of domestic gear, but Voldemorts don't even want that.
I mean the same chindi Govt is ok with importing 26 Rafales from France for the Navy, but then the Navy is also gigachadand has never bothered the Govt for importing ships as the mainstay of the fleet.
Hahaha 1 month. New record for "proven" foren import maal. If only we had something homemade gosh.Another kwality screwdrivergiri.

What part of this thing looks lighter than a BMP-2 ? And we have a new chassis now (5-6 tons heavier but with nearly double the engine power), why even bother with the BMP anymore ?
At some point "NAMICA" will have to die and what'll remain would be simply the FICV. There's no point in having a dedicated "tank destroyer" when the armament you're carrying is pretty much the standard loadout of any modern 30mm turret, so why not have just one ICV type?
FICV is on the card anyway and the Zorawar chassis will be shared (albeit engine will go the front). For how long it's taking to finalize a BMP based system, and for a measly 4 ready-to-fire missiles, why not wait for the FICV to materialize.
