There are members who'll be better to answer that questionIs it because Pakistan is equipped with F16 or will the United States have political requirements?
But we have a Baby Aviation industry, it is nowhere near that of US Russia or China
We have the Tejas order of 83 numbers just signed,
We have the Bigger Tejas Mk2 MWF coming up
Best thing for IAF is to put h for 36 more rafales and go full swing with nurturing the Indigenous industry
Wouldn't make sense to just get the F16 for the heck of it and/or as stopgaps, it is a foolish thing to do
