  1. GE414 is just like F16, US is making money on things they never longer use.

  2. US is selling the same drone to TW, difference is it has data link capability with US and JP, for India, the US will take out all this data link capability before send the drone to India

  3. what a joke, MQ-9 only for surveillance, China has exported hundreds attacking drones participated thousand of real battle with killing rate 96%. , GE 414 is old, with max power 91 kn, China' WS 15 with max power 180 kn

  4. any achievement or new acquiring reported in India only shows how backwards this country is compare to China only India thinks those can "deter" China.

  5. some basic knowledge about jet engine, Kaveri engine, with metal alloy, max power 71 kn India cannot make anything other than metal alloy in engine material GE404, max power 81 kn, now used in Tejas which India cannot sell a single one to any other country. GE414, Max power, 91 kn, needs mono crystal alloy, which India has no ability to make, used in 3rd gen fighters, All stealthy fighters need engine with ceramic alloy made engine, with above 140 kn, max power, F22's 153 kn, F35's 190 kn, AL 41 for Su 57, 141 kn. WS 15 for J20 180 kn. US will not TOT this kind engine to India. GE414 will only waste money with no use in counter China, it is your money, waste it as much as you like

  6. Indians have no vision, GE414 cannot fly by itself, you do not have it, you need to make it, then that will take 10 years, then another 10 years to put it on to a jet, so 20 years later, when it comes, not, China has 6th or 7th generation fighters out, you have a 3 gen. or 4 th gen, how can that be any useful??
