Hey George buddy! I'm in France right now but have little time to use on fora until the last week of April.
I suppose you meant concerning Horus' announcement and not the Rafale deal signed with India from yesterday.
In that case, as I never give credit to any ( whichever side incuding "mine" when it applies ) sources unamed,
no matter what the tag _ official, close to, informed, etc _, I'd still have to say this is speculation.
Not that it is impossible, mind you, merely unsubstantiated.
I could say this though about posts that appeared after yours : every corporation has a commercial culture of its own.
Some like to communicate a lot ( akin to running their mouth off ), others are very circumspect and yet others never talk before a deal is actually signed with the ink dry and all. Not presuming on any other, I can say with certainty that Dassault is at worst of the middle kind and at best of the latter. Thales used to be more talkative but since Dassault took a bigger stake, their communications stances are much more in synch?
You're a bright guy so I suppose you can infer the rest?
And maybe even translate for our more obtuse friends? But hey, do your daily stuff first; I'm guessing it will keep until
I get back to a normal schedule.
All the best to you & yours and good day all, Tay.
No worries and have fun in France
