His subjects of interest: defence and politics. Rafale has the advantage of being logistically and operationally similar to Mirage , which the IAF already operates.
This would require fewer changes in the existing infrastructure of the IAF, which, in turn, will reduce cost. If India had opted for Eurofighter, it would have been a totally new edition in the IAF fleet, compelling the force to build new infrastructure and start a series of training for its pilots to familiarize them with a new technology.
In the case of Eurofighter, India would have to deal with four countries UK, Germany, Italy and Spain for sorting out even a minor issue related to acquisition or technology transfer. Can Mamata go national?
Successful coalitions at the Centre have been usually headed by leaders with weak power bases. Is a green Diwali possible? But, it compromises the agility of the plane at high speeds. Wanted to know from you how much would the Gripen have cost in indian rupee terms and would it have served 80 percent of our stated purposes?
French bird is far superior to the typhoon….. And purpose of both the fighter jets are different and french settels better in our requirements….
What happened to make India,technology transfer when German and Britain offer at discount price. Why they bought at higher price from France without technology transfer,BJP gov. Should answer. This is not gujju flea market where you bargain at wholesale price. Eurofighter is jointly made by 4 nations, so India would have to be dependent on 4 nations in times of need.
Just 1 nation refusing to sell parts can derail entire system. Rafale is not only a better all rounder fighter than Eurofighter but also makes India just dependent on a single nation. Cheaper isnt always better. The very reason its like this is because Congress never bothered to keep up with maintenance of fleets and old jets are rysting and not even sortie worthy let alone war. Before asking govt. You know everything about Rafale deal because it was fairly transparent govt.
WHile you never even knew there was a gun called Bofors until the scam came out. We have a precedent. The Mirage have performed well. And, as part of a programme to enhance the operational life of these aircraft they are having India-made multi-function displays, state-of-the-art avionics and newer weapon systems installed. This offer was to derail purchase of Rafale , which Congress party wanted to get procured for their cut to be awarded,.
Modiji not only removed the cut by going for Govt to Govt deal and also reducing the numbers for any significant cut. His quick decision also saved precious time the IAF was loosing by not having aircraft. This kind of mis information is from those who could not make money and are in habit of looting country. Pre election propaganda by Congress, why did Congress not finalised the Rafael deal for aircrafts?
Why Eurofighter was rejected by Congress? Why did Congress sabotaged Tejas? During world war 2nd France sufferred heavily this reason French goes development of their weapons entirely different from Other European countries, which are superior than American and others countries in respect of design etc. Jai ho Modi sarkar ki, Best of best get selected. The deal offered by euro fighter, was on paper, and its not like buying something on amazon. I have no doubt that the price would have risen once they got into the nitty gritty.
You can still make the point that the eurofighter was the better deal and should have been considered. But Your headline just makes it sound like this deal reeks of a scam.
If Mr. You would be doing great service to the nation in doing so. Writing some vague article without any substantive evidence is definitely not good journalism. Simple enough reason, Rafale is built by one nation, Eurofighter by 4. If ever we need assistence for anything, we will need to have engagement will all, which for most parts is painful. We have had the Mirage from France, so reliable as well.. Not just 4 nations, the 4 nations are so pedantic that one opted to move out of a union involving all of them.
Germany has been more of a headache as far as India is concerned on defence equipment. France not only maintains strategic autonomy, has also displayed the same during Kargil War. France is the right partner to work with.
HAL is an undeserving candidate to produce anything let alone benefits from Dassault. The Mirage is being upgraded, with night vision goggle-compatible glass cockpit, India-made multi-function displays, state-of-the-art avionics, advanced multi-mode multi-layered radar, fully integrated electronic warfare suite and newer weapon systems. Now that is smart analysis you compare apples to oranges and come up with some numbers that are lower than the current price..
U have a scam!!! You still ignore all the professional inputs of IAF as to why they decided for Rafale or are you an expert to know as to why Eurofighter would have been better than Rafale. Or are u trying to tell me that even IAF was biased when they decided to go for Rafale?? Or are you telling me that they also got some benefit out of a Government to Government deal???
If you can prove wrongdoing do it show me the damn money trail…who got what and who benefitted…I will support you and say Punish them in courts and in the voting booths and so will millions of common Indians….
Major issue with typhoon was with the countries producing it, Germany and Italy. Both of these countries have a cluse to stop the supply in case of an active warfare when the planes would be needed the most. Sunday, 14 November, Sign in. Forgot your password? Get help. Privacy Policy. The Fifth Republic is zealous about its former colonies and tries not to let them out of its influence.
These countries regularly supply France with natural resources. Therefore, it was decided to create a single aircraft for the Air Force and Navy with a high degree of unification, capable of being based on an aircraft carrier. Accordingly, for the aircraft with priority on impact abilities considered unnecessary speeds above THE MJ1.
Great attention was paid to stealth technologies that increase the chances of survival when hitting ground targets and in air combat. Sweden is a neutral country with highly developed industry, including military, all post-war years trying, as far as possible, to cope with their own forces in the supply of weapons for its own army. The development and creation of modern aircraft is very expensive. The main modification in service with the exploiting countries is JAS 39C.
To date, there are two customers — the Swedish Air Force — 60 aircraft with an option for another 10 and the Brazilian Air Force aircraft. The gap is quite noticeable. How important is this in real combat use? So the platform must be able to perform in the most adverse of conditions which includes searing heat and humidity to the frost bitten cold of the Ladakh.
Eurofighter on the other hand has had a lot of sales with over aircraft ordered by six countries. The Eurofighter Typhoon variant on offer is the Tranche IAF already operates the Mirage and Rafale is operationally and logistically very similar to their previous cousin.
