The Indian Air Force Commander refused to buy fifth-generation Russian fighters.

Despite the fact that Russia still views India as the main buyer of the Russian fifth generation Su-57 fighter, it became known that New Delhi is officially refusing to purchase Russian fighters, finding a replacement for these combat aircraft.

“The Indian Air Force is preparing to work with relevant agencies to produce the fifth generation AMCA Indian advanced mid-range combat aircraft, which will become the Indian stealth fighter.”- said the commander-in-chief of the Indian Air Force, stressing that the purchase of the Russian Su-57, as well as the American F-35, is not provided.

Experts draw attention to the fact that in this way the fifth-generation Russian fighters did not have buyers - only China shows a nominal interest in Russian combat aircraft, but solely for the purpose of studying the technologies used in this combat aircraft, while initially it was supposed to export at least 1000 Su-57 fighters.

It should be noted that Turkey also refused to buy Su-57, emphasizing that it is still a member of the F-35 program.
