Exessive noise around Darwin and Katherine! For me that would be cool, getting to see all those jets we don't normally see. Wish I was up North right now.

IAF contingent includes Su-30MKI, C-17 heavy lift and Il-78 Tankers. Would have been great if the Tejas Mk1A was also sent, but G.E. is reeling from supply issues and unable to supply us the engines on time, so Tejas deliveres are delayed as well :(

@Buddy89538 Ай бұрын

@@CarlBurtonsyou’re right Amberley is far however many of the large MRTTs are positioned down there due to the space required and Amberley has ample. Just today a Japanese MRTT did a round trip from Amberley to the exercise area in NT. If you have a look at flight tracker tonight there’s actually a French MRTT that made the trip from Amberley to NT for refueling ops.

@SumitBisht0 Ай бұрын

Initially made in Russia, later assembled in India.

@death_parade Ай бұрын

@@SumitBisht0 Those made in Russia Su-30 were the older non MKI types that were later returned to Russia. Russia later sold some of those to Angola. So all 272 Su-30 MKI in IAF service are India-manufactured.

@death_parade Ай бұрын

Simply because we have 15 squadrons of Su-30 MKI and only 2 squadrons of Rafale in the Indian Air Force.

To be fair, it's a highly capable aircraft & useful for Western pilots to train against.
