Its that time of the year again when military jets from all over the world touch down in India for India's premier Air Show....

F16s, F-18s touch down in India for Aero India 2009

Interesting to see L-M's contender for the MMRCA tender coming down.

The proposed F-16IN would have a F-18 type refuelling probe to refuel from IAF IL-78 tankers. There was a painting of it somewhere

The Israelis tested a probe config on their Vipers, similar to the one they had on the Kurnass. Maybe that is what we'll see.

I'm sorry, but those conformal tanks just look ugly. LockMart should never have created them. I know the planes got some good extra range, but DAMN.

It looks heavy and hey, they don`t have to waste a pylon! But the airframe is done with the improvement, a smooth line is something different.. It looks for me like flying LEGO
