The Modi government has vaccinated its own air force to the tune of Rs 45,969 crore. Defense Minister Rajnath Singh awarded a 6.25 billion contract to Indian company Hindustan Aeronautics Limited.
Rajnath Singh, the BJP government's defense minister, was forced to take the third ship, which the Indian Navy had rejected on the first day due to technical issues. The third aircraft is being introduced as a substitute for the Indian MiG-21 aircraft. More than 170 pilots and 40 civilians have been killed in MiG-21 crashes since 1970.
The Indian aviation system industry is notorious in the world for substandard production, constant failures. About 60 percent of the MiG-21's replacement fleet has been grounded so far. The failure of the Modi government and the Indian Air Force to use the third aircraft on January 27 is a reflection of its failure.
Pakistani hawks stole the dream of Indian warriors from Pakistan-made JF-17 Thunder. Pakistani Shaheens targeted MiG-21s and SU-30s. Pakistan's success is a testament to the expertise and professionalism of the Pakistani aviation industry. The defeat of Pakistan is also a question mark on the Indian aviation industry.
