Rafale's off-the-shelf price is around $90 million per plane. but MMRCA includes full ToT with source codes so we'll
build the jet here in India. that would also further reduce the price as we'll limit imports to just specfic tech, 100% of
all raw materials, airframe, engines (license-built M88-2) and some more will be manufactured locally.

So the indian-built rafales would cost just around $70-75 million per plane, further reductions could be seen in future
which means the number of planes to be built might increase to 250 or more according to future requirements.

you still making rd-33 and al-31
but your tejas is crying for engine
more jets mean more future delay for next generation jets
life span of rafael is 40yrs its mean you use them till 2060 when other nations even us will using and 7th generation jets
