the reported cost of these second hand mig29 is under 4million per unit....
upgrade cost would be around 13million per unit....

so for around 18million we will have a plane that will fly for 15 more years...

Will the MK2 be a good match for Gripen NG?
What about the the Chinese J-10 and J-11?
It will be much superior to J 10 and J11 and better than some expects compared to Gripen E and alao inferior to Gripen E in some other aspects such as sensor fusion and Network centric warfare.

And it will take another 30 years in development. HAL will make 4 jets a year and IAF will refuse to fly it and demand improved MKIII and Indian defence story will continue...

Not bluffing but just poking fun at our historically slow Sarkari Babus.
Problems are there at first attempt.
India took decades to make it's first SLV to missile, warship, helicopter or whatever but went fast later when platform was ready.

Need help guys...which bomb is the DARIN II carrying underbelly and underwing?
(Underbelly:Looks like the Israeli PB500 with a Griffin that I remember seeing on the Tejas)

Any thoughts on the underwing bomb?
The voice inside my head tells me that it's a BL755 but I think we retired them...
No its not the BL755. It looks really different and is shorter and stubbier.

Here's one with the RAF.

My guess is that the the object under the wing is not a bomb but additional fuel tanks located on both wings.

No english version available for non-Hindi speakers?
A lot of the communication happens in English.
The sister channel (Rajya Sabha TV) is an English channel but the above is not available there.
My first language is Kannada but I was able to understand.

Trinidadians only speak two languages - English and bad English.
:biggrin2: I thought Trinidadians also speak Bhojpuri. I'll translate the video for you & other non Hindi speakers.

No. After 171 years, language is long forgotten save for a few words.
