Angad Singh and Pushan Das help
StratPost editor Saurabh Joshi understand how the new Indian Air Force contest for fighter aircraft (MMRCA 2.0) will be different from the last one, why cost needs to be a priority and why it will take two general elections before an order is placed. Now that all six of the aircraft pitched in the earlier Medium Multi Role Combat Aircraft (MMRCA) contest have
confirmed their participation in the new contest, Angad and Pushan explain how the process will play out with the RFI deadline on July 06, 2018.

India is really in need of 5th Gen Aircraft, I believe strongly to neutralize enemy’s thoughts of India not having an MMRCA. To compete with F-35 Lightning II,F-22 Raptor and T-50 PAK. Considering the costs and the Negotiations, I believe this will only be possible through smooth communication between the Political Leaders.
