About this listen
India is considering the purchase of US F-35 fighter jets, but no formal offer has been made. Air Chief Marshal AP Singh highlighted the need for careful analysis of the jet's capabilities and cost, emphasising it's not a simple purchase. India's fifth-generation fighter jet program, AMCA, is under development, with the first jets expected in 2035. Singh stressed the necessity for India to accelerate its technological advancements in military aviation to compete with countries like China. The Air Chief also addressed concerns regarding delays in the delivery of Tejas fighter jets from HAL, clarifying that discussions with HAL officials were friendly. He advocated for a future where India leads in military technology development.
