It's Business in the End ............. F-16 and F/A-18 Super Hornet are not Super weapons ............ Both F-16 is pathically Outdated and Too Much Over Priced .......... at the price of a F/A-18 India can almost get Two SU-30MKI or MIrage 2000 / 5 .

As i said Earlier LockHeed Marting and boeing are Bidding for Contracts for sale of weapons to IAF they are Not Alone in that they have to Compete with Mirage , Gripen , Mig and Sukoi ......... and Currently American Companies offers is not very lucrative ............. Mirage 2000 /5 and Mig 29 are the Front Runner in the 126 Aircraft deal............ and Coming to Boieng's F/A-18 Super Hornet which is Also competing with MIG29K and Mig is leading in that Contract ....... Both Lockheed martin F-16 and F/A-18 are almost sure not to win their respective Contracts ............You Guys are Presuming that India Will Buy them ..

US Sells most of it's weapons to Middle Eastern Countries ....... In south east Asia Pakistan is the leading recipient of US Arms ......... that's why It's Unlikely India will Go for US weapons just yet.

Pakistan is a Close Ally of China and Middle eastern Countries doesn't have anything against China ............and India doesn't Buy weapons form USA as yet .


Peace
