In the 1990s, the United States started the Gulf War. In this war, the United States showed the world what a modern war is. Therefore, countries around the world have invested in military modernization. In the process of developing modern military construction, Air Force fighters are a topic that can never be avoided. Therefore, in the past few decades, various fighters in the world have entered a stage of rapid development.
Since the 1990s, China has started to imitate the U.S. military. It has also been jokingly called by our Chinese netizens to cross the river by touching the U.S., so China’s military construction is generally compared with the U.S. Similar, but China is not blindly imitating, but has its own technology. From the research and development of the fifth-generation fighter, it can be seen that China has sufficient self-research strength. At present, China already has the J-20 stealth fighter. . Compared to China, India, another military power in Asia, is somewhat dwarfed. Although India has relied on imports to improve its military strength over the years, fundamentally speaking, India does not have enough self-research. Strength, as for the fifth-generation fighter, it is impossible to talk about.
India has maintained close military trade relations with Russia before. Therefore, India and Russia have also reached an agreement on the development and import of fifth-generation fighter jets. As long as India is willing to pay for research and development costs, Russia will and India Joint research and development, based on Russia's own Su-57, developed a fifth-generation fighter for India. If India really executes in accordance with the contract signed with Russia, in 2020, India should have its own fifth-generation fighter jet, but India unilaterally broke the contract under the flick of the United States.
may be that India feels that Russia’s Su-57 fighter jets have not reached its desired strength, or that the conditions given by the United States itself are too attractive. India turned to the embrace of the United States before fulfilling the treaty with Russia. , Ready to purchase the US F-35 export-type fifth-generation fighter. However, the United States does not intend to export fighter jet R&D technology to India, and even if India really wants to buy the American F-35, it will not be able to deliver the order until 2035. On this point, Indian experts said: Wait another 15 years to have your own fifth-generation machine? nonexistent. China has long had the J-20 stealth fighter, and India has long been thrown away by other countries when the daylilies are cold by 2035.
can only say that even if India is reluctant, it can only admit it through gritted teeth
, because this situation is entirely caused by its own decision, so no country is willing to speak for it on this matter. . At the same time, this incident in India also confirms the importance of having independent research and development capabilities. After all, being stuck is an intolerable thing for a country.
