Even as the western and eastern fronts with Pakistan and China are bolstered with additional Sukhoi-30MKI squadrons, India has also kick-started plans to base its most lethal "air dominance" fighter in south India to keep a “strategic eye” over Indian Ocean.

Given its small size anyway, it's "virtually invisible" to adversary fighter; were how a Tejas Test pilot described Tejas RCS signature.

The Russian Aircraft Corporation MiG (RAC MiG) has proposed to India to consider the possibility of concluding a contract on the supply of the MiG-35 multipurpose fighter jet.

The US is looking forward to expand its military ties with India including a potential sale of the F-35 fighter aircraft, though no decision have been made so far, a top State Department official said.

China can "throw" at least 21 fighter squadrons against India, from its eight airbases in Tibet and other airfields to their north.

India and French firm Dassault Aviation today decided to keep aside their sharp differences over contractual obligations and move ahead on the other aspects of the deal to procure 126 multirole combat aircraft for the IAF.

Top-gun Indian pilots are now quietly honing their combat skills on frontline Sukhoi-30MKI "air dominance" fighters to take on the best in the world.

The last aircraft in the Limited Series Production program of LCA-Tejas (LSP-08) took off on its maiden flight on March 31 from HAL airport.

Six Indian MiG-29 fighter planes have been upgraded in Russia and the remaining 63 will be upgraded in India, an official from the Russian Aircraft Corporation MiG said at the aerospace exhibition LIMA 2013 on Saturday, March 30.

More than two years after he cleared a Rs 11,000 crore upgrade package for the Indian Air Force's Mirage-2000 fleet, Defence Minister A K Antony informed Parliament that cost of the upgraded fighters would be close to its shelf price if India wished to buy these aircraft now.

February 22, 2013 would witness the Indian Air Force demonstrate its operational capabilities by day, dusk and night at the sprawling facility of the Pokharan Range.

Defence Minister A K Antony would inaugurate the 9th Edition of Aero India on February 6 at Air Force Station Yelahanka in Bangalore.
