    Sukhoi Su 30MKI

    It won't be a great achievement,their is a reason why LO capabilities are taken into consideration by design itself,anything with weapons mounted outside will be detected by over 100s of miles in the plains......

    The specific fuel consumption is 24 tons in an hour at full afterburner by a single AL31 on Su30,it is better than the PW engine on F15s and F16s...for the context,a GEF404 AT full AB consumes 17 tons of fuel...

    Sukhoi Su 30MKI

    I don't know what is the range of 2052(as it is classified) what I know is that it is not designed to fit in the Tejas while uttam is,uttam's backend and front end are designed with in the space limitations of the Tejas so a radar designed especifically for a type should perform better than a...

    ELM2052 has 3re variants and jagaur will be getting smallest of all while Mk1a will be getting the mid one with 500trms. Their is no deal done for elm2052 for mk1a,Hal has yet to place order for bulk.

    Jagaur aesa and ew is not same as that of mk1 a,jagaur has a smaller aesa than what it will be on mk1a . Worker union is to be blamed ...nepotism is very high and they always go on strike for anything that is done to reform.

    90s mig21 replacement wasnt fake ,the first migs inducted in 60s And the last in 80s,currently the ones who fly were last made in 80s, 90 replacement sought for the replacement of migs made in 60. Earlier Sukhois inducted in early 2000snds,and they will be replaced by amca beyond 35s and this is...

    As per CAG they are overused than specified. Mig21 flies because their replacement didnt came, so far Su30s replaced migs to counter numbers however the retirement of those types were sought in 90s , iaf still uses it because they didnt got the replacement in nos of the same. Tejas LCA will...

    Or rather drop the plan to acquire the fleet of mix heavy mid light. Which i guess is already dropped. Last year during a seminar,Airforce official stated that AMCA will replace the earlier Su30mkis.

    SAP518 is an escort jammer which performs wide band jamming while elta 8222 is a self protection jammer which requires drfm so that it can perform deception jamming. Escort jammers don't require drfm, drdo hbj is a replacement for sap518 not elta 8222.... Su30 in a strike mission is required to...

    For the jammers you dont need to supply the source codes and it is not integrated with the radar but with the mc of the aircraft. Missiles like derby are integrated with the radar and for that missile's source codes are required to be available to the radar vendor for the software integration.

    Israel will not share source codes to the russians .. Forget integration of derby on su30mki
