    Re: ADA LCA Tejas Mark-II Almost all of your claims have no "credible" backing, just claims based on erroneous newspaper articles inspired by import lobby reporters.

    Re: ADA LCA Tejas - IV Do you know how much we are going to pay extra for this and what is the time frame needed for it? For rafale to fly in indian colors the new govt should sign the deal. Untill that nothing is conclusive. The reported demand by french for a guarantee on the deal to A.K...
