We desperately need more of them like 50 of them otherwise it's will become another c17 for india
Too costly
If they buy additional Chinooks and it’s a big “IF” it will IMO be the same as what was purchased the first time(15). There was actually a few rumours that Air Force is interested in purchasing 6 additional C130J Super Hercules and a repeat order of CH-47s, after seeing the great utility of these 2 platforms in the recent clashes with China. Don’t know how true these rumours are though so don’t take this post as any sort of confirmed decisions

I never said that its confirmed that we are not buying them. It was just my opinion as IAF is already short on budget, they want more jets and also AEWACs , tankers so ,hence cannot afford such costly platform.

We should work on RTA-90NG in a fast pace as our future transport programme, Indian govt isn’t focussing on it, we should become self reliant in such spheres too.
