@Guptaji HAL or DPSUs cannot pay bribes to netas and generals through multi million and multi billion dollars arms imports. This is where Tata, Adani, Ambani without even a product of their own but who give lakhs of crores of funding to political parties comes in. C295 is not in the class of AVRO but in the same class as AN32 and HAL's RTA. IAF has been successfully flying AN32 for last few decades. Latest AN32 costs only 15 million dollars then why government is importing similar aircraft for nearly 48 million dollars? When HAL is manufacturing RTA which will be cheaper than AN32 and made in India then why this make in India government importing foreign aircraft at over inflated price through a private company which doesn't has even one aircraft? Who will pay 22,000 crores Tata or the public like what happened with 200,000 crores Air India which was gifted to Tata merely on payment of 2,500 crores?

@rahilvig8185 If private companies are so competent why can't they design and develop their own product instead of reselling foreign arms or technologies developed by DRDO DPSUs? Ambanis have sunk Rafale and Naval ship project. Adani entry in Tejas project raised the cost of Tejas from 24 million dollars to 45 million dollars. Same Adani in whose port 2.5 tons heroin and other narcotics are regularly seized and who was flagged by RBI governor Raghuram Rajan to Modi for over invoicing which in turn led to sacking of Raghuram Rajan instead. L&T fabrication of hull of Arihant is so bad that it almost sunk in its maiden voyage. DPSUs HAL have given ICBMs, IRBMs, nuclear submarine, stealth destroyers, fighter jets, missiles, spy satellites etc etc whereas our private companies are finding it difficult to exist on the shelves of local kirana dukans thereby needing handouts by the political parties which is leading to crony capitalism.

@vibhanshuchauhan3328 AN32 is 15 million dollars which IAF has been operating for decades whereas C295 is almost 48 million dollars. When we have made in India RTA by HAL which may be cheaper than even AN32 why are we importing a foreign aircraft through a company that doesn't have even one plane? We pay taxes to run Tata, Adani, Ambani??

@AjayTiwari-en9nz If RTA is going to take flight in 2025, why the desperate need to import a foreign aircraft through a company which is basically a truck manufacturer and in financial crisis?? AN32 is Ukrainian and not Russian FYI. Ukraine is firmly with west. Why import 48 million dollars C295 when 15 million dollars AN32 has been successfully serving IAF for last few decades?? If you think 200,000 crores valuation of Air India is laughable then you need to question Prasun Bajpai. 60,000 crores of Air India was only incurred largely due to purchase of latest fleets of 777ER and 787.what happened with Air India is state sponsored theft of public property. India is already below African countries in global hunger index. Now like a typical 3rd world corrupt banana republic we don't have a national carrier when Nepal and Afghanistan also have national carrier.

@prakultandon2336 then we should do away with government of India altogether? No Indian Army, Navy, Air Force, police,IIT, IIM, NIT, railways, ports, airports etc. Therefore no need to pay any taxes. We will buy everything from sethjis and lalas??

@AjayTiwari-en9nz Full scale funding of Tejas started in 1993 and 1st flight in 2001. Just look at Su57 and F35 to know what a stellar feat it was for HAL to successfully create the first prototype even after all the embargoes due to testing of nuclear devices. This is much more astounding for a nation where favorite mode of transport is still the bullock cart. Antonov is still going strong and very recently IAF got its fleet of AN32 upgraded by Antonov in Ukraine just before Russia attacked that country. AN32 is from the 1980s and still in production as it is popular across the world. Even if RTA gets FOC in 2030 IAF has no shortage of transport aircrafts in the light to medium category. What we are lacking is heavy lift aircrafts like C17 whose production has been stopped.
