New Delhi: In a startling saga of compromises made on the safety and capability of India's frontline fighter aircraft besides posing danger to the life of pilots, it has come to light that at least 18 of brand new Sukhoi 30 MKI had been fitted with already-used and secondhand engines.

"It was noticed while checking the records…that AL 31FP engines fitted in certain aircraft was in Cat B condition at the time of inspection / delivery to Indian Air Force (IAF)," said a report encapsulating the findings that have been accessed by this newspaper. The IAF's frontline Sukhoi 30 MKI is a multipurpose twin-seater supersonic fighter aircraft which is powered by two AL-31FP aero engines.

چوروں کو پڑ گئے مور . چڈی اپنی طرف سے بڑے سیا نے اور ہوشیار بنتے ہیں
سالوں کے گھروں میں پوٹی خانے ہوں تو دماغ پر چڑھی ہائیڈروجن
سلفائیڈ اور کاربن مونو آکسائیڈ کا خمار اترے اور عقل ٹھکانے آے ان سورما چڈیوں کی

naheen aisa naheen hota.. kon say west main rahtay hain.
Im in Canada. You can't get a brand new replacement engine for any car. Although they sell it saying new but will be rebuilt. The only brand new engine comes with brand new car. Same is with transmission. The parts which are sold are called OEM but not the ones which are installed first time in factory.
