I would have thought the IAC would want to start by understanding what's in their airspace before buying fighters ... or is this perhaps a status symbol for deployment on UN Ops?

As far as I know, they don't have a C2 system (in the conventional sense), nor any long-range AD radars (or other non-cooperative sensors) to feed one.

Happy to be enlightened ...
