Couple of questions-<br /><br />1. What is the projected per unit cost of the MTA?<br /><br />2. Is a 50:50 work-share feasible when HAL does not have any competencies in engines & FBW systems, to list a couple, other than license production?<br /><br />3. Why is the development cost divided in a 50:50 ratio when IAF is interested to procure 45 aircraft out of the 205 planned production run? Shouldn't it be in a 1:3 ratio as per the production ratio?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-64562196105193769362010-09-11T02:30:55.048-07:002010-09-11T02:30:55.048-07:00We should have joined the Embear KC390 program.

But some how this announcement does not inspire enough confidence knowing the the fact that almost every critical Indo-Russian JV continues to be mired in delays, cost over runs and constant haggling. <br /><br />-NikhilAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726844009873922462.post-76889713229516230332010-09-10T08:29:30.210-07:002010-09-10T08:29:30.210-07:00@anon at 18:19

Never ever should we get into the ALH like scenario where even after footing the bill, we can't produce engine, transmission, vibration control system etc. If we are not able to get the engine tech then it would be a meaningless exercise.AKhttp://ak47.yahoo.comnoreply@blogger.com
