Indian Air Force: News & Discussions

What options do we have .

HAL should just focus on tejas mk1 and 2 ,they can't handle anything beyond that at this point of time.

It's better they do the research work of subsystems etc for amca in next 5 -6 years and only then proceed with something.

Are you not even reading what I write? I already told you the options. The options is not to fall into stupid import trap to match pak taunts of aquiring J-35 and focus on A2AD as temporary counters, more air defense, more anti stealth ground radars, and more land attack missiles to disable air bases and control the airspace. All of this can be accomplished domestically building domestic industry.

Kill anything in the air using S400/Kusha and blast their airfields with standoff weapons. Then regardless of the generation of aircraft they will be rendered useless. This is a stop gap arrangement only. We need to develop of our own FGFA capability at a furious pace as PRC will continue to constantly upgrade Pak standoff/missile capability. Having seen and I am sure PRC is arming Pak with something similar. A PRC missile being painted in green and given some duffer ghazi's name.

I am a little curious, Why did you quote my post? That post of mine had nothing to what you are discussing. I was talking about the troubled status of the current MRFA tender. You can read back my previous posts about it.

I was responding to someone who posted something claiming that Japan and India were considering developing a 6G fighter. Possibly wild speculation. Gave my reasons why I did not believe that.

Sorry if I quoted your post in error.
