Indian Military Aviation News and Discussion

[Arun_S]

Over the years, I am convinced the best Indian military option is to mostly co-develop military products with Russia.



In current MMRCA scenario Rafael and Mig35 should split the order, and for transport aircraft co-develop Medium Transport Aircraft (MTA), while standardize on IL76/78 platform in the interim.



If India does need long legs during war/emergency, India already has the law and mechanism in place to requisition (read take over) Indian civilian aircrafts including Airbus A300's and Boeing.



That clips wings to C17 argument even more.
