from Ctrl + Alt + Defence · host NDTV
In this episode of #CtrlAltDefence, we look at a possible order of Russian-designed Su-57 stealth fighters for the Indian Air Force.  An interim buy if it happens, the Su-57 will be India's first stealth fighter until such time as the indigenous AMCA (Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft) becomes available for induction in the mid-2030s.  But should the IAF acquire the Su-57? Does it meet an IAF need? Is the technology good enough or is this a risky buy, even if it is manufactured in India? Can India close the stealth-gap with China which already operates a whopping 300 J-20 stealth fighters? Join Vishnu Som and Shiv Aroor on the latest episode of #CtrlAltDfefence.   CTRL ALT DEFENCE IS POWERED BY IFFCO TOKIO
