Also purchasing Boeing f 18 Jets with the indigenous Naval LCA program will not only develop the program but will bring capital for the program hand in return India will also gain its naval capability by using the Boeing F18 jets. Further, it will also increase the relationship between us and india.

    The question is with How much Weapon & Fuel weight can "F-18 Super Hornets" take-off from a STOBAR Carrier like INS Vikrant??
    Its best that Indian Navy opts to Lease "F-18 Super Hornets" from US Navy till the time TEDBF gets developed.
    It will be difficult to Lease "Rafale-M" jets as they weren't manufactured in large numbers by France due to French Navy only operating a Single Aircraft carrier "Charles De Gaulle".
    But if its about procurement then "Rafale-M" is the best option as it will allow IN to have logistical commonality with IAF.
    Both IAF & IN can use each others facilities during conflict for MRO if they operate the same Aircraft.

      The Rafale in its most basic configuration is around 115 million. Now add on all the equipment, for example the Indian Navy wants, it'll be way mkre expensive. Now the F18 at its cheapest is around 70 million, and the most expensive is the EA-18G electronic warfare version of the F18. It's cost is around 125 million. Having multiple Air Forces using the F18, as well as the US Navy parts will be readily available. The only country that uses the Rafale Naval variant is France. There's also only around 250 rafales. The F18 A/B/C/D variants 1,480 were produced. The E/F variants have around 610 produced. Honestly I think India chose the wrong aircraft considering the F18 also has wings that fold allowing more room on the carriers deck and hangars. Boeing was also going to allow India to build its own version of the F18 and help build a factory for that and maintenence

    I think TEDBF should have been never approved at the first place. The R&D & manufacturing cost will be too much for just around 50+ limited numbers. bcz Navy is anyhow procuring 36 foreign jets & we are gonna have only three carriers (being optimistic), & IAF has NO interest in TEDBF.
    So, just for 50+ jets, all this indigenization drama makes no sense.
    instead,
    Order 57 foreign jets, & transfer all mig-29k/kub to IAF once the ordered jet's delivery starts. 57 jets are more than enough to operate from both Vikramaditya & Vikrant.
    Once future planned INS Vishal comes close to delivery, choose another foreign jets based on INS Vishal's capability. Like, more order of previously ordered jets or F-35. (Which help us stay relevant to futuristic combat).
    (Who knows, USA may allow us to operate F-35, ten years down the line.).
