No more than 36 rafale for India ?

[majid mehmood]

guys there is no need of buying rafale now
it was needed in 2005 not now just think u indians
if u signed a deal now u will get rafale in 2017-2019 time frame by that u will start getting pak fa which is much more better than rafale
it would be a very foolish decision by indian government if they signed rafale deal
mmrca is actually dead now

Rafale is a good buy if PAKFA got delayed for 5-10 years.

these sort of news have started to appear on daily basis and God knows how come media houses are privy to such things as how much money India is having for what purpose.
Government clearly mentioned that these 36 are for critical operational requirement and nobody knows how much is planned for future.
most of these news is rumor mongering at best.

Indians can't buy anything without haggling over price. I was doing garage sell one day and I priced an item at five dollars. It was already way underpriced but the Indian shopper insist on 3 dollars, which I rejected. I priced the same item at 10 dollars next time when another India asked. It was sold for 7 dollars. I learned how to do business with an Indian that day.

What this got to do with Indians? I am interested in knowing how come only Indians come to do shopping with you? This strategy of ur shows that U were dumb first time since u are the one who lowered the price and naturally any buyer would bargain . And u cry of Indians...... Finally u learned to do business just dont quote Indians there.

But still you cant afford. See the hard reality what your defence minister told you.

That's because we need to invest on other areas also like ACC, Sub, Destroyers, Frigates not to forget our ISRO at end of the day we don't want to be dependent on any of our So Called All Weather Friend at the cost of our Self Respect and Sovereignty...

only? i reckon after 5-10 years the project for Indian version will only 'officially start' ````Rafale is the best choice for them for at least 20 years

It took india 9 years to realize the fact that they cant afford 126 mmrca jets

The so called mother of all deal finally licking the dust.

And have you considered the leverage India enjoyed in all these years? Maybe there was a design to this delay?

 

[INDIAISM]

You are unique among Indians that accept the reality that India in only buying 36 planes. For that belief, you will be accused of being a false flagged Pakistani soon. Or even Chinese.

All through I don't want our Govt to buy more then 36 rafale but at the end of the day you can't confirm that their will be no follow on order lokr in 1996 we ordered 50 Su 30Mk then on 2002 we ordered another 140 Su 30 Mki taking the order of Su 30Mki to 190 then in 2007 we ardered another 40 copies of this beast thus taking the entire order to
230 at that time we thought the IAF won't add more beast but they ptove us wrong by ordering another 42 thus taking the total number to 272....

Actually delaying is much better for us.. we'll be getting FGFA by 2020-21 but we'll not be buying in a huge no becasue of the cost issue... No Airforce around India can afford to buy and maintain 5th gen fighters entirely.. take a look at China there 5th gen is almost ready but still they are inducting 4.5 ge fighters

Wait until the deal is announced before jumping for joy.


You are in for a nasty surprise.....

Come out of your wet dreams. Just 36 jets is just what is expected.

After 10 years of tenders, negotiations and bargaining, its just 36 Rafales! India is an amazing country. It really is.
