It depends on many aspects:sorry to keep you bothering respected sir but if IAF wants to go for a few heavy lift cargo jets what should be best option this new version of IL76-MD-90A or C-17 if the standard requirement is of say 50-55 tonne ?
1 - AFAIK, C-17 production is ceased and project is closed for now.
2 - how many of Il-76MD does IAF has already in service.
Il-76MD can be upgraded (remotorized and equipped with new avionics) to MD-90A version in all aspects but the new wing.
It will rise its flight package and make expluatation cheapper and more effective (up to 15%).
However, this project is temporary solution until Il-104/106 will enter service.
