India to buy 2 Mirage 2000 aircraft from France virtually free

[airmarshal]

Two jets makes sense for spares.

But its India we are talking about here, which starts with a worldwide competition for 126 jets. Then after 10 years decides to buy just 36.

So in realm of India, anything is possible.

It will be interesting to see which Mirage 2000 variants France will give to India. Since Mirage 2000 is no longer in production, only used aircraft will be offered.

2 free Mirage 2000 for aviation museum is not a bad idea.

This is very sad. France closing the production and India has 49 Mirage so what will happen to the spare for those jets?

closing production line does not mean components are not available

India intends to cannibalize these two free Mirage 2000 for spare parts does indicate the level of scarcity of replacement parts.

france has a fleet of 100+ Mirage-2000s. I doubt the supply of spares is that bad

Actually not. It may be free but for buying 36 Rafale jets. And moreover this two free will give them marketing as IAF will certainly order for more. So it is not free.

No need to worry as Dasalt opens manufacturing hub in India. So Spares will be made in India.

If you want to know - you need to buy and test the taste. Pls be on topic

Lets hope it's not a cover-up like before.

A cover up which was published in a newspaper. Makes sense.

Buy 60 above list price, get 2 free.

What exactly is the list price for Rafael ?

yes yes , and why they bought 36 that you are not able to understand or perhaps dont want to understand , reasons might be many . Indian national congress alias (anti national khan-gress ) was responsible for the delays . wait for another 5 years and you will come to know why India bought 36 of the shelf / till then enjoy trolling , bye for now

France has presented two Mirage-2000 fighter aircrafts which also be manufactured by Dassault aviation for a very minimal price.

That's what it says in the article...so I don't know if it's free or not. Also the two fighter jets thing doesn't make sense...who buys two fighter jets.

if they're going to inspect the serviceability... i bet they're not new fuselage. most like from french stock or retired aircraft. extremely weird this. sounds like corruption tbh

free? how much more naive can these geniuses get? . No wonder a chaiwalla can dupe them into becoming PM.
