Indian Air Force Issues RFI for Long Range BVR Missiles

Indian Air Force (also known as Bhartiya Vāyu Senā) has issued a request for information (RFI) for the long range Beyond Visual range Air-to-Air Missile (BVRAAM) which can give advantage the Indian Air Force against its primary enemies like Pakistan and China.

Beyond Visual range Air-to-Air Missiles are designed to shoot down hostile aircraft without allowing them to use within visual range missiles (WVRAAMs) in an air battle. IAF has not specified the range requirements for the new BVR missile but given the past statements of the IAF officials it is likely to be over 100 kilometer.
