They are split between Vikramadtiya and Vikrant but idk how many, there are total 40 in service so is this a 20/20 split?

Isn't Vikrant currently homeported at Karwar. Ideally they should alternate.

Maybe 12-14 per Aircraft Carrier. Maximum of 16.

The Navy plans to use its 12 MiG-29K fighters on the INS Vikrant, and bolster its fleet by procuring 26 F/A-18E or Rafale M fighters.

What exactly is the point of raising defence budget every year when we remain where we were decades ago? I see no growth in strength of armed forces.

INS Vikramaditya is due to be replaced from the mid 2030s onwards. Any plans to build that 3rd AC should receive sanction now. It'd take us a decade to realize the 3rd AC.
