If USA wants to be India ally, she has to give what India wants.

India planes that was ordered, saved 20,000 jobs in USA. They need India more then India needs USA.

J20 cant be superior to american and Russian planes .
 
LM seems desperate inspite of healthy orders.

But no thanks unless you resolve the spiraling cost and other strings.

The US needs India more than we need US? Let's not get ahead of ourselves please. We both need each other for different reasons, hence the term; "natural allies".
 
isn't F-35 , primarily an A2G platform??!! ..well, this is what i read on one of the other forums ... if that is true isn't it incorrect to compare the shortlisted contenders with F-35 ??!! .. :undecided:
 
I think India and Russia is developing their own 5th gen fighter PAK-FA. No doubt F-35 is one of the best right now. But India really need 5 gen so fast. PAK-FA times frame looks nice as same time China will be ready with its own may be Pakistan will grab some from China. Only disadvantage if India says no to US for F-35.. US might sale it to Pakistan (NOT SURE).

Americans weren't ready to leave the tail of their stealthy OBL raid chopper, in Pakistan, you think they d sell their top of the range fighter plane to them?:lol:

American will never sell anything cutting edge to Pakistan anymore, why? One word, China. :)
