India selects EF, Rafale for MMRCA shortlist

[Asian.Century]

Yeah right, How many LCA squadrons are flying with IAF? How many super kool, Tejas in inventory? LCA is a Mirage copy in any case, sorry to bust your bubbles.

Rafale has been evaluated and rejected by many Air Forces of the world, seeing is believing. By the time these planes get in IAF in about years of time, Pakistan would have stepped forward.

JF-17 will be wasted if Gripen is chosen by PAF.

Gripen was high priced for Pakistan standards but it was liked by PAF pilots as against to Rafale(unless PAF specific upgrades applied to it). It will be good fighting with India, tata

sab Rafale lovers ka mukh kala ho jaye jaaldi!!!!

not a good wish to make,

i wish jitne bhi rafael heaters hai onka mukh lal, pila, nila, aur hara, ho jaye.

 

[mjnaushad]

why wastin rafale or ef for such a task send mig 21 it will be target practice for them

Seriously dude... Improve your post quality.....

Remember MMRCAs are meant mainly for north eastern borders and has no big relation to JF17, so let's not go for useless vs. discussions and keep it on news, infos, or discussions about EF and Rafale only.

Today defence and security company Saab AB has received information from the Indian Ministry of Defence that Gripen has not been shortlisted for the Indian Medium Multi-Role Combat Aircraft (MMRCA) programme.

Excellent find!

Thank God, finally some progress after a long long time. I am happy that the teens are gone and both my favs are still standing. Feel sad for Gripen.
I personally like Eurofighter Typhoon, but as of today Rafale is more multirole than EFT.

I was wondering what would be the possible outcomes of a 1-on-1 dogfight without BVR missiles for J-17 vs Rafale or J-17 vs Typhoon!!
Well I think winner will be whoever shoot J-17 down faster

bro they must already be sad hearing this news.. U dont rub salt on their wounds! Lol

So this confirms the news as of now and puts to rest any doubt.

As of now we have to just hope none of the loosing parties indulge in cry baby antics and the MoD/IAF deliver on ACM P.V.Naik's promise of MMRCA winner by September.

ps.: Rafale 27 vs EFT 13. Lolzzzz

.Old article....


And yet, Dassault made no noise about it at Aero India. Not a word. No press statement. To them, as long as the right people knew, it didn't matter. That's Dassault apparently. That's why you don't hear very much about or from them, which can be pretty unsettling for a journalist

No one said that, its up to you to believe it, half congratz to India.
Rafale will show you as a bad deal in future when its shot down. Its already been evaluated by Pakistan including EFs.

Neighbours envy, owners pride.

 

[blackops]

well put your best pilots in rafale and ef and send them up in a mock dog fight and which ever planes wins will join the iaf
