Article is not readable. It is trash. It is a paid article published on behalf of those who lost the deal. Rediff shame.
Ajay Shukla is always know to be inimical to country's legitimate interest. His justifications are but childish. To cite one example - When you buy in volume the price may be less but when it is scaled down from 126 to only 36 the same pricing may not be possible and that too after the fighters are going to be modified specific to India's requirement.
aircraft carrier Vikramaditya which was originally junked after its useful life and later renovated and renamed for India after long delivery delays and price hikes under UPA regime. Rediff should stop publishing such biased unresearched articles by vested interests taking Indian readers to be naive

Very well said....nda has all right reserved for repeating upa mistakes...bjp justify its all sins on the name of congress...its high time thst bjo declare cingress its reaal Guru...and keep on walking on footstep of its idol named congress....and say...if congress do why can't we...
Exorbitant cost - What are the comparable cheaper options? Including make in India!
Variation in fighter types - You still want to hang on to MIG's...which crash everyday. Will Russia produce SU's in India?
Sovereign guarantees - If there is an issue with the purchase French govt cannot shrug off responsibility. They know the consequences.
Piecemeal contracting - Do you have the money to buy today or sign a future contract 200-330 fighters today? And why should we commit today and risk vis-a-vis your "Sovereign guarantees".

And we will always have these contrarians. Tomorrow some other Fighter Jet manufactures will get a paid publication saying how Modi committed suicide by buying Rafael.
is the spokesperson for Russian military establishment anxious to sell its hardware and trying to provoke CAG to raise objections later, as part of US-Russian media war in India as it was happening with Kunnakulam nuke project. But I am sure Modiji will take better care of national interest than what Soniaji did in the past. Jai Hind

Nice joke. Gripen is better than Rafale. Hahahaha. And the 5th Generation T-50s will take at least 10 years before the first one is inducted.
