Who decided regarding selection of radar and Engine ?
Who decides Time Line ?
Who should be penalized in case time line is exceeded ?
Selection of OEM- GoI and MoD
Radar and engine - HAL with IAF
Time line - HAL with IAF
Which time line? Time line for providing requirements? IAF has regularly exceeded it's own deadlines for handing over PSQRs. The latest one where they've delayed PSQRs are for the IMRH.
If your attitude is that HAL are chutiyas and the Armed Forces are unimpeachable in anyway then there's no point discussing anything with you.
