Mirage-2000: Indonesia Officially Rejects 2nd-Hand Qatari Jets; India Potential Buyer For Greek Jets? https://www.eurasiantimes.com/mirage-2000-indonesia-officially-rejects-2nd-hand-qatari/amp/

could've been good project had we not already been flying 270 MKIs.

Is that only for CAPEX. or OPEX for engine parts also included ?? I think it's the latter..

TUrdogan has pumped the Defence budget by 150% . so this year istead of 16/20 , it will be 40B$. Thats equivalent to India increasing budget to 200B$.

Isn't their TEI who is going to make the engine itself is a JV between TAI and GE. We know who is going to do the heavy lifting in that . Also Turdey getting foolproof IP rights will be another issue.

Stabilized video. Post editing.

ENJOY... :truestory:

Mid 40s for 6th gen. That's 23+ years from now . Between 2028-37 we will start to field Tejas Mk2 , TEDBF , AMCA mk1 sequentially. So for 6th gen AMCA we have good 20+ years years gap to build adaptive cycle engine by then in JV with Safran or alone. And decent 10 years gap between 5 and 6th...

2040 ka bhi to ata pata nahi hai. These things have to be planned for very early stages.

Too small RCS , Material used in Balloons also doesn't help.

https://www.eurasiantimes.com/on-sale-117-mig-31-mig-29-heres-why/?amp About 35 years old ; 25 Mig29 airframes available for cannibalising..

We gotta play the cards we are dealt. Xi is also bidding the time. He has decided to rule till he die. Their Fujian hasn't launched a jet yet . Might take 5-6 more years for becoming fully operational. Bigger one is under construction which won't be fully operational upto 2030.

As our economy grows we should be planning to field at least 1- MK2 for 2 -J-10C China has. Although production has stopped ,yet they've build up fleet of 600 J10C. I can easily see MK2 numbers crossing 200+.

The way CAS said in the interview , he meant that whole 180 combined would be worth of 1.15 lakh crore, means same 70-80M per jet with all logistics, as it was during 2021.

LIVE # 180 MK1A order as whole will cost 1.15 Lakh crore. # MK2 numbers won't be affected by the additonal 97 MK1A order. https://www.youtube.com/live/jQIpZyuE0xE?si=-wFD9uqN8kvS9opl

If I understand correctly RTA is civillian aircraft project. It should be more aerodynamic lean airframe built from scratch. We just recently signed deal with Safran to codevelope 4000 hp engine.

Indian R&D organisations have a lot to prove by strictly following the timeline of existing mega projects . Maybe order extra 100+ C295 and a dozen C130 as stop gap if we are thinking of building own MTA.

C2 and A400 are equally priced and speced.

No Tejas in Egypt ??
