The Indian military’s current fleet of choppers is ageing and inadequate. It’s estimated that over the next 10 years, India needs more than 1,000 helicopters.
Pakistan’s reported air strikes on Kabul last night, coinciding with Acting Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi’s visit to India, seem intended to send...
In service with the British military since 2019, it is also known as the Martlet missile. Ukrainians have also deployed these missiles against Russian troops.
Pakistan’s army has been a rentier force available to a reasonable bidder. It has never come to the aid of any Muslims including Palestinians or the Gazans, except making noises here and there.
It is unfortunate that most comments are biased and not on any expertise. It might have been expedient to finalise the existing contract to get the planes quicker – at least one squadron would have come earlier than the new order. The deal according to Rafale’s MD finalised 95 %. This Govt could have tried to hasten the deliveries by a PM
who is reported to be decisive . Instead he changed the offset manufacturer to a new Co with no prior experience in the field and
with a rather poor record of existing Cos. The controversy may cause further delay
Waiting for something bad to happen to buy fighter planes is like applying for health insurance after diagnosing with cancer. On the light side someone is really mixing up the Gandhis.
Media needs to know that it takes 5 years for any one in this world to supply such aircraft after the initial monies are paid. Again the hyped gap between actual and rquired numbers has been existing for two decades . Procrastination has been our speciality. When you want to make this state sensational and now you are insulting yourselves . This is not news for guppa Maro. Nothing can happen by howling at each other. Head down engineering only can
The people here behave like fools without any sign of learning from past. First you become mind less supporters of Gandhis (from Indira to Rahul) when you did’t accept their criticism and now you have become modi sycophants. You simply lack courage to question the wrongs of your leaders. So request to all of you don’t behave like partymen behave like citizens who have interest in building this country and not in building any party.
Purchase of FIGHTER PLANE is like on counter purchase of onion potato for FENKU PM as per spokes persons of BHARATIYA JUMLA PARTY then why it is delayed or Ambani Adani are not ready for donation to JUMLA PARTY
Like like ghete is absolutely no minimum criteria for writing about defence in The Print, provided you write against Modi.
Of course the write , willfully or unwillingly, unaware of the practice that aise air marshal got recently in Paris on partially ready (the plane was ready in it self only the India specific this were not fully integrated) Rafale planes.
And of course I don’t expect the writer to understand that “india specific integrations” are important.
Scamgress wanted percentage in each deal and did not finalise any deal. Sonia was the biggest crook who had appointed a Yesman MMs as PM and looted country alongwith her son and son in law. Modi alone cannot conclude the deal as it takes time. Chor Rahul is screaming that Modi is chor and forgetting how his father mother he himself looted country. Disgraceful party and shameless leader. Throw them in dustbin or a commode in 2019
Tamil proverb says an elephant is worth a thousand coins alive and after its death.Cong ruling denied IAF and after its defeat continues to do so.nations security is not on its mindpp
The editor and journalist here need to understand that aircrafts are not fast food. But alas! These people will never realise. So used to fast food they are – pour in aloo, get sona stuff.
First of all, it may be time to reconsider this two front war bogey. It dates from a time when neither India nor Pakistan were nuclear powers, even China may have barely conducted its first test. Given how costs are spiralling, with each fighter costing close to $ 200 million, 42 or 45 squadrons may not be affordable. And as someone who has a very small heart when it comes to spending public funds, the irreverent question arises, If we have been safe as houses since 2000, perhaps the IAF should not mind waiting a little longer …
Ha ha ha….Modi ji khangress ke paap dhone mein dam Nikal jayegi. Ye Conggress har National interest mein adanga Laga Rahi hai. Kabhi court mein to kabhi road mein.
The print tell me one thing
Modi complete his promise when he finalised Rafael deal but congress upa led by papu and his mother did not finalised anything in 10 year where r u then oh u take money thats why shut ur dirty mouth what is the deal done by congress upa 1 & 2 vvip chopper for what reason national security or personal security and gain .U actually proved paid media or dog exit in india
In Ten years congress could not even conclude whether to buy or not. It takes lot of time to manufacture a fighter Aircraft then writing a pig shit like above. You already have degraded yourself with other bull shit articles and are further downgrading with these dog shit articles
First tge cronies like go and try to stop tge nrw fighter being brought when didnot succeed then you go and write why is taking so long as if fighers are cadbury tiffes to just brought you own sonia gvt took ten years and did buy any thing for airforce. And you want nodi to do it less than half that time how fancyfull. And you still clame to a journalist
There is time required for manufacture. France is doing the flights ready. There is no need for u wanted comments. Did u know the deal?? And the time limit. What happened to Bofers loot. Why no comment on that.??
Promises or Jhumla and Monkey Bath? Modi’s “Governance” since 2014 prove that he is a man of sound and fury signifying nothing. Modi’s BJP is just Khangress-UPA in Saffron clothing.
Church media spreading lies with biased article

Great job by congress for speeding up the RAFFLE purchase process !!!
India specific features cost double the plane itself ???!!!

Who are you to judge these things??
There is a Tamil proverb,an elephant is worth a thousand pounds dead and after death.Cong has managed to defeat IAF while ruling and after losing

Typical of leftist Media. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t! Tired and sick of such bigotry!
A piece of advice – shut down

The print is not a neutral news media…its truely biased against a particular political entity. People r not so stupid nowadays….
How is Modi responsible for this Sorry state of IAF, Blame lies entirely at doorstep of Congress I, which failed to procure anything for 10 years.

Blocked by insane opposition for political mileage.
Let down by insane opposition in India
Promises or Jhumla and Monkey Bath? Modi’s “Governance” since 2014 prove that he is a man of sound and fury signifying nothing. Modi’s BJP is just Khangress-UPA in Saffron clothing.
Your bastard Pappu is responsible for this. He needs godse.
Enemies of India, led by Rahul Gandhi and Congress party are responsible for this situation.
Ok…IAF not getting it because ur master pappu family is blocking the deal…I wish one more godse comes to fuck this family
