    Navy also having similar issues. P75I, LPD, MCMV, Fleet replenishment ship, NHS, etc FYI- MRTT tender terminated due to lack of funds, or too expensive for GoI, and GoI cancelled the deal, not IAF Better transfer these funds to IA, they can use it to buy more drones, missiles, rockets.

    That's IN. Also not half baked, but experimental & P8I purchase is half baked. For IN, aircraft carrier is must, and only option available was Russian, with out mig & vikki, IN will loose aircraft carrier capability, and zero carrier for at least 3 decade. Now IA having 2 ACs, gained exp in...

    INS Vikrant Aircraft Carrier (IAC)

    IN have no economical issue so far. If you go back, CDS asked about naval planning, considering new CV[iac2], and articles about ssk vs iac2. So question still remains - who is going to pay for additional iac1 ? IA faced economical issues, they made some modification, now ok IAF comes with...

    Wrong answer. Q- who pays ? A- IN, once GoI agress. Rest plan/p18 etc not so important. So the real question is when Gol pays ? Here the important point - CSL don't depend on IN like other military dock yard, and can easy survive with out IN orders. Second point - 36 carrier jets, Sensors...
