UK, Japan and Italy will
announce a groundbreaking agreement next week to jointly develop a new 6th
Generation Stealth fighter jet and the UK will merge its Tempest jet fighter
project with Japan's FX fighter program.
The Indian Air Force is fully backing the AMCA program but it is open on seeking foreign collaborations for development of niche technologies for the AMCA as a backup development plan to ensure availability of alternative systems and sensors in case indigenous systems fail to mature as per plan timelines.
