HAL has informed IAF that the first aircraft will only be delivered by November. A total of 16 Tejas Mk 1A were to be delivered by the state-run company but none have come in so far.
Air Marshal A.P. Singh's remarks came in the backdrop of severe crunch in IAF's fighter fleet and delay in the delivery schedule of indigenous Tejas aircraft.
IAF aircraft that will participate in exercise from 12 July to 2 August include the Su-30 MKI multirole fighters, the C-17 Globemaster and the IL-78 Air-to-Air refuelling aircraft.
Facility will initially look at MRO-related work for the 36 IAF Rafale fighter jets, and the 26 Rafale Marine under discussion, besides those of Indonesia.

If there is bad blood between the CEC and the Opposition leaders, it will shake the people’s faith in election results. It’s the worst thing that could happen to Indian democracy.
Indian toymakers are now exploring new markets, but they want govt to negotiate a trade deal with US soon, introduce incentives and subsidies to make the industry more competitive.
The deal, believed to be paid for by a third nation, will give the Sudanese Armed Forces access to light attack aircraft, engines, armoured fighting vehicles & unmanned aerial vehicles.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
If it were really so, the hon’ble Defence Minister should assuage the deep concerns of the IAF and the worried sentiments of the people at large across the nation. What about the govt’s plan-B to meet any resultant unforeseen eventualities, in the given scenario?

Why HAL is unable to deliver on time, should also be described in this article.
Why does have to be government run? Is the government good at running anything? Where is accountability?
Ha ha ha, say our enemies; laughing at our pathetic, socialist state of affairs.
