As far as i remeber engine was never requested from french..just the avionics and weapon suitThunder was supposed to replace all of the mentioned above fighters as long as it was getting a French Engine which was initially committed to by the French in the year 2000-2001. All of the design was around that Engine and so was the the expectation to a certain extent. When the French ditched, a lot of things changed.
