SU-75 CHECKMATE AIRCRAFT: SHOULD INDIA JUMP INTO IT

 

Query

There has been a recent report that Russia has reduced the price of SU-75. Do you think it will be a good time for India to get the fighter jets?

 

Inputs (in random order)

 

  • It is not a simple issue with a yes or no answer.

 

  • There are many aspects and concerns attached to it.

 

  • The aircraft is not combat-proven and the project has not matured.

 

  • A Cost-benefit analysis needs to be carried out.

 

  • Russia needs funding and development partners for the project.

 

  • Can we extract more of the deal given above?

 

  • How does the project affect the Atmanirbharta?

 

  • Russian capacity to produce and supply because of the Ukraine war and Sanctions.

 

  • How much technology will come into the Indian defence manufacturing ecosystem?

 

  • How does the aircraft stand against the other fifth-generation aircraft, especially the ones with our adversaries?

 

  • To some extent the world geopolitical situation and international cooperation etc. to be considered.

 

  • India had earlier agreed to co-develop of SU-57 but reportedly pulled out due to cost, time delay, work share and technology sharing issues.

 

  • SU 75 seems to be a derivative of SU 57 aircraft.

 

  • Also, the dilemma related to force structure planning about the investment in the new generation aircraft or the modern Drones. Drawing lessons from the recent wars and the success of drones.

 

  • A drop in demand for Russian aircraft due to their perceived sub-par performance during the Ukraine war.
