I think the Indian's will be laughing all the way to the bank! They can buy our 'ineffective' Sea Harrier F/A.2's for peanuts. Slap in a generic radar and have some incredibly cheap fleet air defence that can be land based if needed and be used to look 'cool' next time the border flares up with Pakistan.
I would love to know how much many of these F/A.2's cost to build for the FAA as 'new builds' - must have been incredibly costly - to think you can buy one sans the fun bits for 6k ish!
