oh this is Ajay Shukla ..Some Peoples in the Forum too Praising this man
Lets See ..What we need ..We have 5th gen Fighters in Pipeline the T 50 and the AMCA ..when we order the F 35 For the Air force The First F 35 Arrives meantime we Operate a Single Squad of T 50 ..and we already in Place of Super Sukhoi's in Air Superiority Missions along with Couple of Desi MK 2 It's It's more than enough for Air Superiority
But What about Ground Strike ..We have Only couple of JAGUAR and Mirage 2000 ..So lacks of Ground Strike ..That's why we meant to go for the Rafale Can able to Perform top Score in Ground Strike and CAS and can survive from enemy Air Threats too .
I sure we will get the F 35 VTOL For our Navy in Future
The only aspect he got right was that the F-35 is the best strike fighter there is, at least when it comes to precision strike. But when it comes to stand off capability, it is severely lacking compared to Rafale. It doesn't carry long range missiles as of today.
So, the maturity of Rafale keeps it ahead of the F-35. The day the F-35 is able to carry 300 Km missiles internally, is the day it surpasses Rafale, at least in terms of weapons types and in some performance regimes. Rafale will still outrange the F-35 in almost all operational configurations.
There are pros and cons to both types. For the IAF the pros of the Rafale outweigh the pros of the F-35. That's a combination of payload and range. People forget that we will have MKI and FGFA providing air superiority, and we can expect FGFA to break down doors in the beginning.
