Kya hua
India ke Air Chief ka kehna hai ki Russian Su-57 offer par koi faisla nahi hua hai, lekin AMCA programme mein delay is sawal ko phir se khol sakta hai.
Mujhe kya farq padta hai
12-squadron ke shortfall ki wajah se ab imported fifth-generation fighters par live fallback karna pad raha hai.
Yaad rakh
AMCA ka timetable tay karega ki Su-57 ko kabhi seriously liya jayega ya nahi.
India ka fighter fleet decision point
Su-57 offer fallback hai; squadron shortfall hi driver hai.
Aur context aur kis par asar
Unhone kaha, “Russia ne humein Su-57 jets offer kiye hain, lekin is par koi faisla nahi hua hai,” aur indigenous AMCA programme ab industry selection stage par hai.
Yeh option isliye matter karta hai kyunki IAF short hai: authorized 42 ke muqable lagbhag 30 fighter squadrons hain, isliye Singh ka kehna hai ki force ko har saal 36 se 40 aircrafts ki zaroorat hai.
Is beech February 2026 mein clear hui 114 Rafale government-to-government deal, near-term ka main lever hai.

Daave aur unke sources
Air Chief Marshal A.P. Singh ne kaha ki agar AMCA programme delay hota hai toh IAF kisi foreign fifth-generation fighter par vichar kar sakta hai, aur Russian Su-57 offer par koi faisla nahi liya gaya hai.
IAF authorized strength 42 ke muqable lagbhag 30 fighter squadrons operate karta hai, aur gap ko close karne ke liye har saal 36 se 40 aircrafts ki zaroorat hai.
India ne February 2026 mein France ke saath government-to-government framework ke tehat 114 Rafale fighters ki procurement clear ki thi, jiski price talks abhi bhi chal rahi hain.
AMCA industry selection stage par pahunch gaya hai; RFP deadline 30 October tak extend kar di gayi thi aur bids 31 October ko khulne wali hain.
