5 person commitee report on whether to go ahead with FGFA to come out on Monday

It is not,both sides are playing hardball,India wants full production,ToT and export rights whereas Russia wants the deal to be similar to Su-30 MKI deal.Russia will ultimately realise that Modi govt. is here to stay and will sign the deal

Russia somewhat fooled us with Su 30 mki but this govt wont be fooled,they are looking hard at the documents before signing anything

Acc. to Saurav Jha...................

Japan's Mitsuibishi X-2 Shinsin is another 5th generation fighter we can partner with.Japan is not at all reluctant to transfer technology(they will do huge ToT+Full make in India for advanced tech like Shinkansen).Russians have looted us on various occasions.

73% of parts of Su-30 MKI are made in India,and about 51% of value.Greater indigenization is not possible due to contract which specifies metals,nuts,bolts etc to be sourced from Russia
