I was just browsing through Airliners.net and and found this photo.
http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1257539/M
My question is : Is this a new IL-38 that India is supposed to purchase or is it on a routein Maintainence checks.
Cheers

No Il-38s are being build. India will be purchasing Ex Russian Navy refurbished aircrafts.
That's radar on top of the plane.

I have heard one of these things take off at Mumbai. They are LOUD!
There was a rumour sometime ago that the US was offering India upgraded Lockheed P-38 Orions? Anyone know what became of that? |
