Modernisation of Indian Air Force (IAF) is a continuous process based on threat perception, operational challenges, technological changes and available resources. The modernization of IAF is progressing as per the Long Term Integrated Perspective Plan (LTIPP 2012-2027) and Defence Procurement Procedure (DPP). As per broad time-frame given in DPP, it takes about 2-3 years to complete thevarious stages of procurement and conclude the Contract. In respect of 126 MMRCA project, Contract negotiations are in progress with M/s Dassault Aviation, France, which emerged as the L-1 vendor. Divulgence of information on details of operational and non-operational aircraft may not be in national interest.
To counter systemic and institutional delays, procedures and processes are continuously refined on the basis of experience gained during the procurement process. The Defence Procurement Procedure (DPP) provides an effective framework for expeditious procurement for modernization and to keep the Armed Forces in a state of operational readiness to meet any eventuality.
IAF is planning to conduct Air Force level exercise during the month of March to April 2013 in two phases tentatively from 16th March to 26th March and 28th March to 4th April, 2013.
This information was given by Defence Minister Shri AK Antony in a written reply to Shri Prabodh Pandaand othersin Lok Sabha on March 4, 2013.
