Navy's MiG-29K has engine and other problems, hardly available for service
New Delhi:
Highlights
In a scathing report submitted to parliament two days ago, the Comptroller and Auditor General or CAG, which has audited the Navy's MiG-29 programme, says that "The MiG-29K, which is a carrier-borne multi-role aircraft and the mainstay of integral fleet air defence, is riddled with problems" including engine malfunctions which means that in "a best case scenario, a MiG-29 jet will be fully fit for operations less than 50 per cent of the time it is required to be deployed."
India has acquired 45 of these fighter jets for nearly 10,500 crores in 2004 and 2010. The jet, which is deployed on India's formidable warship the INS Vikramaditya, is also meant to be the front-line fighter for the carrier Vikrant, which is being built in Kochi, and possibly the Vishal, a third aircraft carrier still at the design stage.
The CAG report says that since the MiG-29K plane was inducted in 2010, more than half of its engines have been diagnosed with design-related defects. "The issue had serious flight safety implications, since in-flight engine defects had led to ten cases of single engine landings," the report says.
Nor has the MiG-29 been able to fare acceptably during the violent process of landing on the tiny deck of an aircraft carrier. Restrained upon touchdown by an arrestor hook which snags a wire on the deck of the Vikramaditya, the MiG-29K has encountered several component failures
- laivasto itse on laskenut saavansa yhdesta Rafalesta lentosuoritteita irti yhta paljon kuin 5:sta Migista
- nyt vaan laskutikulla sitten kahden osamaaran suhteuttaminen
... kpl-hinnat ja 1:5... ja saadaan tuo piileskeleva VFM framille. Se ei ole kilpaileva havittajatyyppi, vaan Value For Money... taitaa olla Kiina ainoa paikka, missa laskutikut on viela kouluissa kaytossa... intialaiset toki osaavat sen verran matematiikkaa, etta Mig roikkuu kilpailussa mukana ihan muista syista
