come on India

I am still not aware India's might in Air force though we have able fighter pilots. I think we need to buy more advanced fighters(from Russia/france) in parallel with developing indigeneous fighters to prepare for any unprecedented events from our good neighbours. We still have our ageing Mig's which should be replaced with Russian Mig's completely rather than mainaining old ones.

Apafrt from this we do have indigeneously developed LCA(Light combat aircraft) And ALH(advanced light helicopter)which the latter one is of extremely useful in Terrains and unfriendly weathers.

We also have Jaguar and Mirage in our Air Force. But in war, victory matters,upgraded technology certainly having an edge over the rival.
