how would they have problem with spare part if the jets itself is made in india ?
Because they still have to rely on Russia ?
They do not control everything, pretty sure that is the plane that they receive kit from Russia to manufacture it.
they dont ? most mki is more india part than russian.
plus they have all the will of the airframe, they can creat part without russia.
only i can see is the problem is either the engine or control surface system.
i think the problem is more on the Indian air force itself rather than the aircraft, in a span of 10 years around 106 aircraft has been lost.
At it’s core it still very much is a russian plane with critical parts that are still russian at the end of the day.
That too, like i said they use them intensively so it does not help.
Critical parts that India can make almost entirely themselves.
At it’s core it’s a Russian plane made by another nation.
Yeah no, things like engine very most likely not.
HAL actually does produce AL-31FP on their own.
(picture from a HAL production line.)
Then blame is entirely on India lol.
More like entirely on HAL.
The Su-30MKM seems to have somehow lost ±5 degrees of its vertical scan range, but I don’t understand why it hasn’t similarly lost ±5 degrees of its horizontal scan range and remains as it is.
Huh welcome to the club.
You got chineesed buddy.
Also I recommend to run 3-4 R-77’s for short range + 2 Pl-12 for medium to long and 4 R-73’s for close range and dogfights.
Works like magic.

My man, this is the way.
Playing this after the F2 ADTW feels like I’m being handheld
Exactly.
People claim: “but F-2 is so much better because of AESA radar” , well got bad news guys.
At that br range missile performance matters more than radar itself.
Me when casually slinging Fox-3’s in my Su-30MKK while listening classic music.
