how will they get around the export restrictions placed by the UK on things like the radome and ejection seats? Russian options are probably unlikely due to unreliability of delivery/sanctions. No domestic work-arounds to my knowledge.

1. Is something actually there? Israeli offer of Kfir is there. And as far as I know Kfirs use Martin Baker too.how will they get around the export restrictions placed by the UK on things like the radome and ejection seats?

Can the Russians deliver? I was under the impression that they were having serious shortages for naval and aircraft components. Even then, modifying the Tejas to use Russian seats/radomes would certainly draw the ire of the US. Instead of trying to sell a handful of jets to Argentina, might be more worthwhile trying to sell LIFT variants to Australia or the US Navy?2. If at all that is an issue, I feel it can be resolved. Russian alternative for ejection seat and local alternatives for others. A few sub systems can be sources from US offices of UK based firms.
Definitely not, but perhaps an arrangement for cooking oils/oil seeds could be made? Wheat or soy maybe? I'm not sure what else Argentina has that India might want.The real problem is , can Argentina pay the price ?
If the US wants to stop India from using Russian components on Tejas then they need to:If this source is to be believed, the UK has put a lot of pressure to stop the sale of Kfirs and even other surplus planes that don't use any UK components. No idea if the current UK government will be petty about it since they are trying to get a trade deal out of India but you never know.

why in the world would argentina agree to that.UK to agree to the sale of Tejas to Argentina with British components
Rolls Royce is world leader in civilian airlines sector also. I don't see Argentina saying that it will ban its flag carrier from operating Rolls Royce engines.why in the world would argentina agree to that.
Its upon us to be specific in our studies regarding what Argentina actually wants and what it can do for it.If this source is to be believed, the UK has put a lot of pressure to stop the sale of Kfirs and even other surplus planes that don't use any UK components.

My understanding is that UK is the one objecting to the sale, not Argentina. Is that not the case?why in the world would argentina agree to that.
