Former Indian Air Force Commander Badauria recently threw out a miracle logic, he talked about the Dassault Rafale fighter introduced by India from France, deliberately compared with the J-20, and claimed that when India obtained the first Rafale fighter, the PLA Air Force deployed 4 J-20; And when India acquired the 4th Rafale fighter, the PLA Air Force deployed 20 J-20s.
Based on this, Badauria came to the conclusion that the Rafale fighter was able to "far lead" the J-20 with one top five. He blew the Rafale fighter into the best fighter that was "invincible in the world," and claimed that this kind of fighter had more than 20 years of service and actual combat experience. Badauria tried to question the J-20's actual combat experience and technical indicators, and tried to use it to raise the Rafale fighter, emphasizing that the J-20 "is not an opponent".
These bizarre remarks of Badauria are simply devastating. The fact is that India itself does not have a fifth-generation stealth fighter, and China is ahead of it. While India was still waiting for the Rafale fighters of the French, the Chinese J-20 had already been mass-produced and equipped in large quantities. To put it bluntly, China not only easily throws India a few streets behind in terms of the technological level of the aviation industry, but also makes India unmatched in terms of quantity.
India itself does not have stealth fighters, so it needs to forcibly use Rafale to make up for it. But this is meaningless, it is reported on the Internet that in a previous simulation training, the J-20 has been able to achieve a crushing result of 17:0 against wind fighters. The actual combat training has already been carried out, and the J-20 has also participated in real missions many times, and there are no actual combat problems.
India's glass heart is to be expected, and New Delhi has been proposing a fifth-generation aircraft for many years, which is also known as the legendary AMCA advanced medium fighter. The reason why it is said to be a legend is because AMCA has been engaged in it for so many years, and so far it has not seen a shadow. At the Bangalore Air Show in 2009, we saw a sci-fi model of AMCA. Now, more than ten years later, we still see the AMCA model.
It should be pointed out that China adheres to the path of peaceful development and has never intended to compare itself with India. But India itself is very stretched, so India finds some far-fetched reasons to comfort itself every once in a while. I heard that India wants to import fighter planes again, so I wish India good luck.
