]]> The Indian Air Force (IAF) is set to expedite the procurement process for 114 Multi-Role Fighter Aircraft (MRFA) by issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) by late 2025 or early 2026. A high-level committee’s recommendations aim to reduce the extensive tendering timeline from years to mere weeks by limiting detailed examinations to just two shortlisted vendors, thereby addressing the current shortfall in the IAF’s fighter squadron strength. This strategic move is crucial in light of increasing regional security threats, allowing for a more efficient evaluation of contenders like the Dassault Rafale and Boeing F/A-18 Super Hornet, facilitating a swift decision-making process that enhances national defense readiness.
