Another repeat of the FGFA, we will learn jackshit, get jackshit ToT. They will graciously allow us to fabricate non-sensitive LRUs and still make us import avionics and engines. There is simply no need to jointly produce fighter jets with any other country. We only need engine development JV.
This is India, someone gets cut in for even the relatively insignificant things, like contracting for 10 kms of asphalting work.
If it can detect stealth apart from BMs & CMs it's indeed a game changer. Why would you need the F-35 then ? The J-20 becomes just another 4.5++ Gen FA only better networked & with better systems like avionics & sensors.
Are you being sarcastic or are you joking ?
A dozen thing applied together is a game chnager.
Wonder where was this realisation when his predecessor adamantly refused to go in for piece meal induction of the Rafales insisting on the MRFA tender publicly clashing with the then CDS the late Gen Rawat & is now justifying it in interviews with The misPrint & what was the placeholder of a DM & his boss 56' doing then ?
You a certification agent? Better be a Wumao than a low IQ troll
I am
Thank u for your service.
Yes, I believe so. Operating lone F-35 without backup systems that are part of NATO protocol and US doctarine is equivalent to putting S-400 in the middle of desert and expecting it to defend 400km radius. It will never happen. both F-35 and S-400 are effective because of the inputs they get from background Radars, Satcom, Terrain mapping by other assets and integrated command structure.
Dream on……
Listen dadu ji.
Well.. the KLJ-7 can do it depending on how close they launched from. Even with it's limited uptime due to the air-cooled architecture, it can still do work against a 3msq target under 70-75 km. But I call bullshit on the PL-15 bit, it's wasteful on the Jeff (and it's not like their F-16s can lead in PL-15s carried by the Jeff). They probably used export model SD-10As which are more on par with the KLJ-7's practical limitations.
