After Successful BrahMos Integration, Su-30MKI All-Set for Further Indigenisation with Indian Avionics Through 2030

The Russian Sukhoi Su-30 fighter aircraft has been modified over 100 times by the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) and the integration of India's flagship supersonic missile, BrahMos, earlier, is the hallmark of the successful additions, customisations and efforts towards indigenization of the formidable aircraft platform, as per HAL's chief executive officer (CEO), Saket Chaturvedi on Monday while speaking at a book launch event at the National Academy of Defence Production (NADP) — a unit of Munitions India Ltd, as reported by the Times of India.

He further commended, praised and attributed all of it to transfer-of-technology (TOT) and source codes sharing by Russia and the Sukhoi Design Bureau, which, in turn, made it all possible.

Chaturvedi further elaborated that there are plans to completely indigenise the avionics systems of India's Su-30 fleet going forward. It is expected to be completed within the next 4 to 5 years, which will take the level of indigenization of the Su-30s to nearly 75% of the fighter plane would be indigenised.

He also added that a MiG-21 phasing-out ceremony will be conducted at a grand, upcoming event to be held on September 26 2025 and the in-service fleet of IAF's MiG-29s would continue to be operational with the IAF and aboard the Navy's aircraft carriers, going forward...

In my view India must have 3000 Odd fighter aircrafts to be able to fight three front war with Pakistan Turkiye and China in future. India must need to buy Old & New 400 Eurofighter Tranche 3 , 4, 5 with Captor AESA and manufactured in India along with Eurojet EJ200. India must buy New 400 Su 57 M1E with AL51F1 Engine with full ToT and to be manufactured in India in Nashik. India must need to buy 900 Mig 35 fully manufactured in India with full ToT. India may have to buy 100 Empty Rafaele just to Please France and 400 F15 EX Silent Eagle EMPTY planes to please USA and be manufactured in India. All planes will be made 10th to 15th Generation on My Material Science Technology including radar avionics missiles and engine technology mostly as already given. Rest 36 Rafaele, 272 Su 30MKI and LCA Mark 1 and Mark 2 and AMCA totalling 900 odd . 12 Tu 160 Bombers on lease too be procured.
Actually Eurofighter and Russian planes Mig 35 and Su 57 are best for India but to please USA and France we have to buy Empty F-15EX and Empty Rafaele. In my view Eurofighter and Mig 35 will be the best touching 15th Generation.

Old & New Eurofighter and Full New Su 57M1E and Mig 35 be purchased with full ToT. These are best suitable planes for India but not for other countries. With Indian Radars Avionics suite like RWR, ASPJ, IFF, 2x RAM Coatings, PIRATE IRST and upcoming new Indian, Russian European missiles, Indian Engine technologies like Single Crystal Blades, Oxy Glow, Toxy Glow, 4D, 5D, 8D, 9D, 11D etc. they will give higher thrust with lower fuel consumption Higher Engine Life say may super cruise. They may attain even Mach 24 Thrust. Most of the technologies already given. Toxy Glow still to be given. We are in Computer Age everyday new technologies are created so are my technologies of 21st Century moving towards 22nd Century. China too trying its best to move to 17 to 21 Mach three Engine plane Super Cruise using Magnesium Powder in Exhaust as per interesting engineering dot com.
