    F-18 Advanced Super Hornet

    Why wouldn't they ? They have provided us with several capabilities like Romeo for Navy or P-8I . This fighter jet deal means a lot to them. All they seek is an entry and cut down a customer of Russian defence. Anyway, a Lite version was unveiled targeting us...

    F-18 Advanced Super Hornet

    You will need them for interception and 20 are already there anyway. Offensive or defensive is all a words play. Even if we launch a Nuke at China I consider it defensive mindset since china is already an aggressor and have occupied my/ours land.

    Rafale is a better option for the price we pay.
  10. Flying Dagger

    F-18 Advanced Super Hornet

    Why are they wasting theirs and others time. No To USA for IAF unless it's F-35. After going for Rafale I doubt IAF will go for another type khichdi mess.
