Indusima ne treba ništa verovati jer tokom noći promene mišljenje. Ali, po pisanju "ozbiljnije" indijske štampe biće dve nezavisne nabavke. Spomenuti konkurs u kome su favoriti F-18 i Rafal (i Gripen nije bez šanse) i nezavisna od ove nabavka ruskih aviona i to i Su-35 i Mig-35. F-16 tj F-21 nije uopšte u kombinaciji. Za F-18 važi da je glavni favorit ali samo ako Ameri daju i licencu za radar i motor. Ameri su najpre odbili ali pošto su Boing i Lokid ispali iz trke sada tvrde da će razmotriti i tu mogućnost.
U svakom slučaju ovo treba uzeti samo kao trač. Do izbora nove vlade nema ništa ...

Avioni Mig-35 i Su-35 nisu, na toj navodnoj kratkoj listi, ali su u planu nabavke mimo ovog konkursa. Uostalom Su-35 ni u kom slučaju, ni ovako ni onako, kao ni Su-30 ne bi ni odgovarali uslovima konkursa. jedino Mig-29M tj Mig-35. Ovo nije konkurs za teškog lovca za borbu za prevlast u vazduhu nego za lovca bombardera sa primarnim zadatkom - dejstvo po ciljevima na zemlji a sekundarnim borba za prevlast u vazduhu.
Na prvom konkursu, premda se u Indiji o tome malo piše jer je izabran Rafal, jedini avion koji je zadovoljio manje više sve uslove je bio F-18C. Da bi opravdali izbor Rafala naknadno su menjali i uslove i prepravljali rezultate. Ako se držimo uslova konkursa i sada F-18 jedini zadovoljava, manje više sve uslove, pogotovo što bi mogao da bude izabran i za mornaricu. Ja ne krijem da sam Rusofil ali ruski avioni ne odgovaraju uslovima konkursa naročitu Su-30/35. Mig-35 je kao lovac presretač sigurno bolji od F-18 ali kao lovac bombarder sigurno nije a Indusi u oovom konkursu traže primarno lovca - bombardera.

Taj avion treba primarno da zameni ne Migove-21 nego Jaguare i Migove-27 a idealna zamena za njih su ili Gripen ili pre svega F-18 jer je dvomotorac. Danas se insistira na tome da lovac bombarder treba da bude dvomotorac.

Dassault, Boeing and Saab — the front-runners for IAF’s 114 fighter jet contract
Citat:Dassault’s Rafale, Boeing’s F/A-18 and Saab’s Gripen lead the pack, while the Lockheed Martin F-16 and the Eurofighter Typhoon are trailing.
France’s Dassault Aviation, American firm Boeing and Swedish Saab are the front-runners for the Indian Air Force’s multi-billion dollar contract for 114 fighter jets. However, the Russians are still in contention with two aircraft, as is US manufacturer Lockheed Martin.
Top sources in the defence establishment told ThePrint that the main competition is between the Dassault’s Rafale, Boeing’s F/A-18 and the Saab Gripen, even though a total of seven aircraft are vying for the mega deal.
The IAF has finalised the Air Staff Quality Requirements (ASQR) for the fighter programme and has moved the file for getting the Acceptance of Necessity (AON) from the Ministry of Defence.
Following this, the IAF will come out with an Expression of Interest (EOI) and finally the Request for Proposal (RFP).

New Delhi: US aerospace giant Lockheed Martin says it will not sell its newly rolled out F-21 fighter jet to any other country if India places an order for 114 planes, a move aimed at pitching itself ahead of its US, European and Russian competitors for the mega deal.
Vivek Lall, vice president of Strategy and Business Development for Lockheed Martin, says if F-21 wins the contract, then India will also be integrated into the company’s global fighter ecosystem, which is a USD 165 billion dollar market.
In an interview with PTI, Lall said the new combat jet is designed to operate across over 60 air force stations in India, and its key aspects include superior engine matrix, electronic warfare system and weapons carrying capacity.
“We will not sell this platform and the configuration to anyone in the world. It is a significant commitment by Lockheed Martin and it shows importance of India and importance of unique requirement India has,” he said.
Last month, the Indian Air Force issued an RFI (Request for Information) or initial tender to acquire 114 jets at a cost of around USD 18 billion, which is billed as one of the world’s biggest military procurement in recent years.
The top contenders for the deal include Lockheed’s F-21, Boeing’s F/A-18, Dassault Aviation’s Rafale, the Eurofighter Typhoon, Russian aircraft MiG 35 and Saab’s Gripen.
Lall said if Lockheed wins the contract, it will not only set up a state-of-the-art F-21 manufacturing facility along with the Tata Group, but will also help India create an ecosystem for overall growth of the country’s defence manufacturing.
On observation that the F-21 is similar to Lockheed’s F 16 Block 70 combat jet, he said such a view is unfair as there have been significantly differences between the two platforms.
F-21 is different in terms of various aspects including its air frame, weapons capability, engine matrix and availability of engine options.
“As for example, you are now looking at 12,000 hours of service life air frame in F-21 versus 8,000 hours previously (F 16 Block 70). The additional 40 per cent weapons carrying capability is new in F-21 which was not there in F 16 Block 70. The electronic warfare system is uniquely developed for India,” he added.
“Looking from a distance may make it look similar to F 16 Block 70, but it is different,” he added.
Besides having a traditional boom-delivered refuelling facility, the F-21 also has a extendable hose-and-drogue refuelling probe.
“This is only fighter in the world which has both the capability,” said Lall, adding the cockpit has a new large area display.
“It is a modern cockpit and has a significant piece of ability to synthesise information. These are unique capabilities that we are not offering to other countries in the world,” said the Lockheed executive.
The jet has a Long-Range Infrared Search and Track (IRST), enabling pilots to detect threats with precision and Triple Missile Launcher Adapters (TMLAs) allowing it to carry 40 per cent more air-to-air weapons.
Without giving any approximate price of each bare-bone aircraft, he pitched it as the most cost effective compared to the competitors in terms of life-cycle and operational costs.
“If you look at the US government data, the advantage is 30-40 per cent in terms of cost effectiveness. This is lower compared to the comparable competitors. If you aggregate with years and years of operations in the life cycle, it is a huge amount of saving for India if it goes ahead with F-21,” said Lall.
Lockheed, which has a longstanding relationship of 25 years with India, unveiled the F-21 during the Aero India show in Bengaluru in February, saying it will address the Indian Air Force’s unique requirements.
