The coming business will be, So we don't know how many will be upgraded in Indian units. We have to look into all details before committing to the deal. This from another report quoting an LM official, So if we don't buy the planes, they are going to have zero business there. May be our...

LCA is really great considering the support and situation we have at home. If they have some good facilities, they(the true team not the baggage) would have beaten all the competition out there. For that they need good environment. we need to change the environment. Lets propose some solutions...

You misread institutional support in my post. I am not saying we didn't do any thing as a nation. I am talking from general public pov. These tech things are alien to them. Because of IT boom, many learnt how it works. At least they are able to meet our basic needs. That is the change I am...

All starts with baby steps. We have no knowledge about computers just two decades back. What we achieved so far is without institutional support from our country. It is all individual excellence. I think it is enough progress considering the situation. Only ignorant Indian thinks India is best...

That's how we started our IT journey. Now we are offered same in this sector also. @Krusty @mayfair

We might buy it. But won't be in huge numbers. What LM offering is, very sweet deal on paper. Recently, they shifted assembling units from old place to new one. Now they are planning to shift entire assembling units to India. See this link...

According to the report, we are doing government to government deal. If 120 jets buying is required to shift the base from US to India, we need to bargain better. I don't think this deal worth more than 40 f16s. We are in the phase of building more trust and reliability b/w our two...

We learnt from history. That's why TATA +LM. Not HAL + LM.

No one will do ToT with anyone. It is plain lie Russians sold us all these years. The sooner we realize it the better the deals gonna be. Arjun MBT is disaster saga. Our OFB cheated us. They would have involved some private co in t90 production like the current deal. See how different this deal...

They want jobs and huge gdp figures but won't let any one to set up industry in iur country. It's duty of IAF to buy what is beneficial to our forces and our country. Posters seem to forget about the role of IAF.

What benefit you are expecting from this deal? You are mixing three different things into one. The deal is to manufacture F-16 in India. It never said IAF will buy them. Even LM website also says same. What posters here going on about is worst case scenario. Why would we shelve Tejas if some...

@Krusty We need more than 400 aircraft, right? What's the big loss if we order, say 40? Will it impact any thing in long run? It's not like we are buying anything from them. We still have requirement for more than 360. We have plenty of space for our Tejas program. I don't like the monopoly...
