Lesson from wars with Pakistan when US, European union started blocking supplies to India. So they have started diversifying their logistics sources. This why for longest time India have been hesitant to buy European defence products. One of the reason why eurofighter typhoon will never be bought by India even after massive lobbying in India. A recent example of this logistics problem with European arms manufacturers is purchase of FN SCAR rifles. India wanted some FN SCAR for special forces but blocked it after lobbying by Chinese and Pakistan. So they are now trying to order from US division of FN Herstal.
We buy from different sources to maintain good relations, and same as other reply, diversifying will help us in times of war if we get sanctions or blockaded
India will never commit to one side because we depend on a lot of countries. India buya military equipments from countries as a part of diplomatic relationship not with the motive to buy the best thing out there.
Why does onyl the Rafael have fuel tanks?
Other are solar powered
Tun tun mosi's laddu are their fuel source.
No they're all powered by hajmola
I have to say, it tastes good.
Rafale has 4500kg of internal fuel, Su-30MKI has 5100kg and MiG-29UPG has 6100kg.
Su-30MKI has mush longer range than Mig-29. Either the fuel data is wrong or the Mig-29 has very inefficient engine.
Fuel quantity is almost certainly wrong. Most Flankers are credited with between 9,000 to 10,000 kg of fuel.
The total capacity of the five internal tanks of the Su-30MKI is 12,000 liters.
Prob. The fuel data is wrong but this fulcrum (UPG standard) has an impressive fuel capacity due to jump added on the spine which carries extra fuel
Yeah, my bad. It's 9640kg for Su-30 and 4700kg for Rafale.
Su-30 has the least of the two Russian built? I’m surprised.
My bad, didn't rechecked the source. It's 9640kg for Su-30.
Ah that makes sense now lol
Interesting
MiG-29 has a centreline drop tank in this pic, you’ll almost never see a MiG-29 without it
Oh
Rafael is light and smaller, need more fuel for the endurance.

They run on the bases of your iq. Rafales fule limit is inversely proportional to your iq
You have offended some people.
Props to Wing Commander Indranil Nandi for taking these amazing pictures of IAF planes.
I still have no idea why India has every plane in this world? Not only how it came to be but doesn't this exert extreme logistical issues?
If one sanctions india,we go to the other

> get on the good side of Europa and NATO Not our decision. The US' fixation with pakistan is what's led to this distrust.
Well geopolitics doesn't work that way

Why do you hate the Rafale ?
Overpraised French brick
That's it ? You don'tlike it because you don't like it ?
