CRASHES OF FIGHTER AIR CRAFTS IN INDIA
The INDIA armed forces have lost over 60 aircraft and helicopters in crashes, which have killed over 80 people, just since 2011. With the two primary reasons being technical defects and human error, the combination of ageing machines, inadequate training to rookie pilots, shoddy maintenance and poor quality of spares continues to be a deadly mix and exact a heavy toll
. There have been well over 1,300 crashes of fighters, aircraft and helicopters recorded in the armed forces since 1970.
IAF has now lost at least seven of the 240 Sukhoi-30MKI jets it has inducted till now. In all, India has contracted 272 Sukhois from Russia for over $12 billion, with the bulk of them being "produced under licence" by Hindustan Aeronautics
