One consideration has to be deck spotting on the smaller Indian carriers. Su-33 and (probably)F-18 out

Not pictured: LCA Tejas (slightly smaller than Gripen), Su-33 (way bigger than F-15), and Mig-23K ( about Typoon size, but folds down to Gripen size)

India’s current two carriers have ski ramp launching so the heavier fighters are out I reckon.
Still have not found details on their hangar deck and lift dimensions.

Great graphic you posted; it is a keeper.
