France stopped UAE to deploy its Rafales against Azeri JF-17 Block 3 in Falcons Meet 2026 war drills

On a serious note French relucent to sell Rafales first humiliation by PAF second is that India paid in cash only 30% of the cost and rest give credit note and pushing French to buy products from us and adjust the amount by giving them a bribe we will buy more but French are insisting that they will gave them fully assembled Rafales without source code and all payment in cash and off course with above mentioned condition not to fly.
 
Those are just YouTube walley chacha stories.

Do you know that these Air Forces (in the region) have support staff from Dassault at all times...

So, its NOT like they can take anyone up for a joyride.

That makes the loss of Rafale for France more bitter.
 
On top of it Rafale is earmarked for carrying nukes should the need arise....
More than three fallow orders cancelled or at least on hold plus 3 other nation previously showed interest runaway.

Now French are saying " Itni tou kamai b na hoyi jitney ka pant suit phat gaya" :ROFLMAO:
 
On top of it Rafale is earmarked for carrying nukes should the need arise....
French can't sell nuclear capable air launched missiles to India and they are not allowing India to add their own or sourced missiles to be inducted for Rafales since they refuse to share source code to India plus French also push India not to maintain Rafales by HAL / India and maintenance only be carried out by French themselves plus training for Rafales by French only.
 
That makes the loss of Rafale for France more bitter.
When i said in the region, I am certain about GCC & Egypt.

I can't speak for the Indians.

Remember when things heated up last year...

Dassault went to the Indian Air Base on the West to check up on the numbers, I suppose, but weren't given access (which was a first).

I suppose India was able to convince both France & Dassault to downplay the entire event. France probably realized that its best to play dumb otherwise the thought of a Chinese Missile coming off a Chinese Jet at the hands of Pakistan would've put a major dent on the sales of their precious Rafale to future customers.

Coincidently..., @Areesh put it in the best words possible some time back...

The French have been left traumatised. No doubt about it. The French have investigated the downing of the Indian Rafale fighters. They have been left shell shocked at the findings. The sophistication and capability that Pakistan air force used to down multiple Rafale fighters.

The French are known to be very arrogant and stubborn. Their arrogance has been absolutely shattered. This is absolute fear that we are witnessing.
That's the payback for them backing out of Avionics deal for Thunders.
 
You are right, but the French are butthurt after investigating the downing of their Rafale fighters during Sindoor. The French probably don't want PAF to learn more about this aircraft. In reality, as you rightfully claim, PAF has already extensively flown against the Rafale. In fact, there are claims that Pakistani fighters have even actually flown the Rafale itself. This is just butthurt by the French and it makes sense after Sindoor. The French are pretending to be cautious.
Flying against Rafle or any other jet in a dog fight has no bearing in a BVR fight, which primarily depends on a secure, silent net centric kill chain.
