    What does combat load have to do with attrition rate are you stating in war these 36 rafale be more than enough for PAF and PLAAF. China is manufacturing 100's of J-10, J-11 and J-16 and other kind of flanker variant and you are pitting 36 rafales against such a threat. Victory in modern warfare...

    By 2016 serviceability of su 30 will be 75% which will be at acceptable level. If IAF would have stopped drooling over rafale and invested in spare parts this would never have happened...

    The defense minister categorically stated the cost is 56million $, and looking at the price that french are quoting it sound like they are asking excess of 100 m $. Also infrastructure for su 30 are already in place so spares are easily available.

    World Rushes to De-Dollarize Oil Trade Before US Economy Crashes and Burns

    What all the central banks are trying to do is fight of 1929 style deflation or depression. They are all backed to a corner since like Japan none of them can raise interest rate or it will pop up all those bubble which have formed. The future looks quite depressing for our generation :( .
