DRDO's Strike Scenario For 3 Indian Fighter Efforts

I am proud of my Indian scientists but sometimes I also believe that DRDO is doing more paper work and drawings rather that finishing the projects.

Induction of the major weapon systems is no where seen before 2017. Most of the news are like.. Trials are going on, up-gradations are going on, negotiations are going on, will be operational, will be inducted. It is good that transparency is there to avoid scams but what frustrates is the deadline and the dates they give.
How are they going to produce the weapons in mass for 10million active personals in military just in a year during induction phase?

WTF is this man
they have nt included RAFALE in that pics which is a key player .
I didnt like it

@ Screambowl: Your views are right, In 1997 Indian army Planned to buy AN/TPQ fire finding radars from United States, But DRDO had told government, It can manufacture the Radars at half of the price, but during kargil war when these radars were desperately needed, DRDO could not produce them. A lot of lives lost to pakistan shelling. Source: Kargil From Surprise to victory: Ved Pradish Malik.

If not F-35 India can buy F-15 Silent Eagle aircrafts, Problem is AMCA should not be a LCA Again.

why silent eagle??..if that is the case than India should go for much better su-35s....but anyway this is not gonna happen....

can you provide a link please. But it could be right, since we did not even have LGB 10 years back. The Basic Problem is, system is very very slow.

i believe the AMCA is being built with Russian and French help , plus the lca was delayed because of the sanctions imposed on us . we literally had to re invent the wheel . that will not be the case here.

I think whose ever help we take but we should respect the time also, these Babus are not at all serious about the security neither they take interest. India's military man power is 2nd largest in the world if they take 5-6 years only on trails when are they going to induct in numbers.

Talking about fighter plane's that are not even on drawing board yeah except the super flop Lca that hasn't been tested yet,,,

You are either Ignorant or Stupid

They can be replaced with extra Rafales and even Extra SU 30mki if needed

I am the biggest fan of Su30MKI. But I don't think it's primary mission is ground attack. F-15 STRIKE EAGLE,SILENT EAGLE,SU34FULLBACK BOMBER,RAFALE are the most impressive machines available for this kind of job. F-15 does have superb capabilities. Don't oppose anything blindly. I think F-15 strike eagle is best shot for ground attack role with best avionics,armaments & radar. I have seen a video of F-15 which was hit by a missile. it's one wing was gone but it still recovered in flight & returned safely back to base. with 1 wing it's near impossible to fly a plane whether normal or fighter one. I don't think any other plane has this kind of survivability power & capability. Thanks.

F 15 Strike Eagle was and is still primarily an air dominance fighter (not for ground attack) just like the SU 30 mki. Both these planes have remarkable A2G abilities and you cannot say that one is more optimised than the other.

The Silent Eagle with it's internal weapons bays is even more optimised for A2A than A2G.

Nope! There are quite a few really good mud movers out there and F 15 nowhere near the top.

Nope! Many planes have performed way better than F 15 as far as taking the hits is concerned.

Here is one of the greatest ever.


SU 25 Frogfoot













A 10 Thunderbolt.

F-15 strike eagle is multi role fighter,strike fighter(deep strike).
McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The USAF has pursued the Next-Generation Bomber, a medium bomber concept which could take over the Strike Eagle's "deep strike" profile.
The F-15E's deep strike mission is a radical departure from the original intent of the F-15, since the F-15 was designed as an air superiority fighter under the mantra "not a pound for air-to-ground." The basic airframe, however, proved versatile enough to produce a very capable strike fighter. The F-15E, while designed for ground attack, retains the air-to-air lethality of the F-15, and can defend itself against enemy aircraft.
2nd point I agree that F-15 silent eagle is a primary A-A role jet.
Can you tell me the name of those good movers?
Taking hits is another thing but loosing 1 whole wing is another thing. & Yeah I know those hits given by as well.
waitinm for answers.

The F 15 SE has retained most of the original F15's airframe with the major exception of conformal fuel tanks. If you think that this is the best A2G plane out there, then the SU 30 mki also comes very close. It is also a A2A airframe which is very good for A2G role too. With comparable range and MTOW it is definitely not a slouch in A2G.

AFA the radar, targetting pod , EW and other bells and whistles are concerned the F 15 certainly has a clear edge over SU 30. But we will not get this all steriod version of the Strike eagle. So the SU 30 compares pretty good in that department too.

Just check out the level of protection and redundancies built in for the A 10 thunderbolt and you will realise the difference it makes for CAS.

For deep strike I would prefer a rafale!


Also, please check the survivabilty of SU 25 and A 10 during wartime. Do not go by the stunt of the broken wing!
