    Sanctioned strength of IAC-1 is 30 aircraft including all. If you put 26 Migs on it, how many Helis for SAR and AWACS role would you put on it? When Vikramaditya was inducted, IN ordered 16 Mig-29s with 4 being twin seater trainer. Additional 29 were ordered post that in 2010 keeping in mind...

    Do some study. Don't go by what is written in Wiki. 30 aircraft is sanctioned strength of Vikrant, which includes both fixed and rotary wings. The current G2G deal India is looking forward for IAC is for 26 Aircraft out of which 8 would be twin seater training variant. Now you are not going to...

    INS Vikrant Aircraft Carrier (IAC)

    Wow.... Thats another level of RR. It exceeded the expectations. Does it mean we had done the deal? Even if F/A-18 gets selected, what's wrong in it from this cribbing? It is the best available carrier based fighter as of now.

    MF-STAR is a search and track radar. It could be installed even after commissioning. Its not a new RADAR for us and its cuing onboard is not a big issue. Important then the STAR radar is its subcomponent. As far as we have seen, those are already in place. As far as fighters are concerned, we...

    INS Vikrant Aircraft Carrier (IAC)

    It is not coming up to TD stage for next another decade or so. So as of now IN would only consider platforms which are in service. So its better if we talk about Rafale M, F-18, Mig 29 as of now instead of bringing in TEDBF and Mig-35 in discussions.
