Re: Indian Air Force F-16
Indian Air Force is the air arm of the Indian armed forces. It was established in the year 1932. As you have asked information about the Indian Air force F-16 MMRCA contract, check below for the information Lockheed Martin offered a modified version of the F-16, the F-16IN Super Viper for the Indian MMRCA contract. The F-16IN, which is like to the F-16 Block 60, will be a 4.5 generation aircraft. Lockheed Martin has specified that it will be the most advanced F-16 variant developed. It will be more advanced than the F-16 Block 52s that the Pakistan Air Force has attained. Lockheed Martin described the F-16IN as "the most advanced and capable F-16 ever." Based closely on the F-16E/F Block 60 as supplied to the UAE, the features on the F-16IN include: Conformal Fuel Tanks (CFTs) – This will give the F-16IN a combat range of 1700 km with 1500 kg weapons load. A Northrop Grumman AN/APG-80 AESA (active electronically scanned array) radar. This is the same radar in service on the F-16 Block 60s in service in UAE. General Electric F110-132A engine with 143 kN full afterburning thrust with FADEC Controls. Electronic warfare suites and infra-red searching. Advanced all-color glass cockpit. Helmet-mounted cueing system. Lockheed Martin offered to sell India the F-35 Lightning II aircraft in the future, as replacements, if the F-16 was chosen |
