India wanted to create a fifth generation fighter based on Su-57 and Su-75 technologies.

After New Delhi decided to abandon the acquisition of Russian fifth generation Su-57 fighters and not to develop an FGFA project fighter jointly with Russia, it became known that India nevertheless decided to return to cooperation with Russia and use it to create its own the fifth generation fighter base of the Russian Su-57 and Su-75 fighters.

At the moment, it is known that the Russian side has decided to provide India with technologies for the creation of the LCA Tejas fighter, which the West allegedly lacks. It is not known what specific technologies are being discussed, however, apparently, these are "stealth" technologies, as well as technologies related to the development of an engine with a controlled thrust vector, which will provide the future combat aircraft with high maneuverability.

India's return to cooperation with Russia is highly anticipated, since New Delhi no longer has any options given the desire of the Indian military to receive a fifth generation super-maneuverable combat aircraft. After Russia presented its second fifth-generation combat aircraft, India decided to turn to Russia again for help, especially since the fifth-generation fighter being developed by India, by analogy with the Russian Su-5, is also lightweight.
