But how to deal with CISMOA and BECA? F-35 will certainly come with "latest stealthy" tech which might not be released to India. They have effectively put the proverbial ball in India's court knowing that India would be seen "accommodating US" this late in competition. We should proceed with MMRCA and buy 40 JSF and put them in SFC. And add the missing sensors/communication equipment ourselves.
offer is tempting,might only take place when there is some TOT and no operating restrictions but it surely the induction time would have to be somewhere near 2020 considering the US alone has orders for 2000 odd planes
