well, it's about the threat you are facing and what you are ordering in. For example, 051C and 956EM are both capable platforms that are probably 2 generations ahead of the Ludas in PLAN. However, they don't meet the PLAN requirement at all imo. In that case, do you go with the indigenous route or the export route?

I dont assume that the KJ-2000 is "bad"- but nor do I take stuff like what TP wrote- about the KJ being awesome and all, without corroborating evidence.
