These issues are with navy mig29k . Airforce mig29 are fine and now with upgrade they have internal ew ( Indian dare ew suite) , inflight refueling etc .
Jaguar , mig23/27 had nothing to do with f16. We bought mirage to counter f16 first and then Russia scuttled more mirage by offering very cheap mig29 . And we had no money so we went with mig29.
Tremendous achievement . Now all excuses to buy foreign trainer are gone. This will save nation billions in Forex and spur aviation industry forward. Hopefully IJT will follow soon + lca sport and we will have complete indegenios training chain.
