True that even EW suits may be Co developed with PAF and later used in 36 Rafale for IAF .
Highly placed source said Dassault will be producing communication equipment in Pakistan for their JF17 and later used in all their exports . Like Indian MMRCA . Great boost for JF17 project. May be...
Nothing new I this article . It's just a recap . And many members will have lots of idea better than the OP . Tejas MK2 is no where in the picture , AMCA still in paper so does FGFA . Now how to increase the number ?
Place order for 80 MK1 from 40 . To replace Mig21 .
Go for another 36...
This has to be done as this source of energy from France is usually 8-9 rupees per unit .So it had to be domestically produced to bring down the cost. Wonder what will be the cost per Unit now. Areva technology is too complex and if I may be very precise safety was a head to some country they...
When we still eating our heads ...
Look at our PM during Boat Pe Charcha :p:
no one is looking at anyone who is looking at them ANI on Twitter: "Paris: PM Modi undertakes boat ride with French President François Hollande on river Seine #modiinfrance http://t.co/wu4gKEsyMp" #modiinfrance...
F35 lightening 2 or C ... And do you think we will go for F35 ? But we have Rafale supply line why can't we use it . Rafale at sea will be very versatile platform . Ton time better than F18 or Mig 29
You missed EF , Rafale F35 F22 !!!
And mean while we will get Mirage from UAE :mad: :taz...
Because we need more than 124 rafale and we are not some banana Republic to spend all these money on imports. We can afford to build it at Home . Ins Vishal will have RafaleM and Rafale is also preferred for Nuclear delivery 40+40 at least
Lol he don't get it . Our IN alone need 40 rafale for its INS Vishal, Our Nuclear Task Force already agreed to buy 40-50 Rafale for nuke delivery and that's why we opted for 124+ 64 MMRCA deal .
Serious fire power even better than French airforce :cheers:
I don't understand this point made by our neighbours. Two new platform will create logistic trouble. We already use many different platforms for over 3-4 decades now. And Rafale is not for air superiority as per our doctrine (it's has equal capabilities of air superiority) . Air dominance is...
:lol:
And looks like we are going for 180+ rafale for IAF alone :flame:
MMRCA is on !!!! 36 rafale won't solve anything for IAF. These are assurance for our commitment to buy 124 MMRCA . As our Navy will also need at least 40 Rafale M for INS Vishal . In a decade .
Modi orders 36 'ready-to-fly' French-made Rafale fighter jets
French Defence minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, Indian PM Narendra Modi, French President Francois Hollande, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo and Foreign Affairs minister Laurent Fabius smile as they talk on a "bateau mouche" boat on the Seine...
Another wild guess . But makes sense .
Remember our IN want to have 40+ Rafale M for INS Vishal :D . After all 64+ numbers might be true .
Another wild guess by someone.
@livefist Plus final sqn of 18.
New total cd be 2x36 fly-away (72)+108 Made In India+final 18=198
MMRCA was 18+108+63=189
Did I say anything about J10B . Bit I don't agree with their claim that it's better than all fighters including F22 Su35 MKI EF Rafale . How much will Pakistan can buy even with soft loans ?
100? Even then by that time IAF might be very advanced with new stealth jets
Yeah and they opted for Reliance . Does reliance have capabilities to produce Rafale ? But when HAL already manufacturer Advanced MKI why can't they produce Rafale ? With ToT ?
And dint you hear about Deal is going smoothly and HAL contract is intact for 108 jets ? Our Navy itself is looking...
Very true . IAF is set to match PLAAF in their own number game . As nearly 1000 + are very old fighter jets like J6/7 etc . On J10 front it's an old airframe too . It has its own limits . J11 as you know is a ripoff . Their Su 27/30MKK are very inferior to IAF Su30MKI . J31 is a joke . I could...
