Indian Air Force News and Discussions ll

They cancelled the FGFA because the Russians wouldn't give them complete ToT, and now they're grovelling at the Russians again. And if the Russians, their best buddies, are reluctant to give ToT, then what chance have they got with the French? Or for that matter the FCAS? They're hyping the Rafale as if it's a silver bullet, but the reality is they have no choice. And if they're cornered, both the French and Russians will milk the proverbial cash cow dry.

Absolutely no incentive for France now, Rafale order book is full till they start on next gen FCAS.

They also know India's options are limited. They will put Rafale on table with no ToT, name their price and that is the end of it....
 
Carry on making shit up as you go along. How can you clear a "deal" where the cost is unknown? No one is buying this crap anymore....
Procurement approval and deal signing are two very different things as I can see. You're free to ignore these updates.

Exactly my point, France (like it has done in the past) can simpky refuse Indian requests.

This deal may not even see the light of day.....

It could be a repeat of the same old story: for name sake, they make India a junior partner in the FCAS, offering the jet with no critical Transfer of Technology (ToT). Instead, they might just provide some local parts manufacturing or assembly via CKD (Completely Knocked Down) kits, name their price, and leave it at that.

Failed to hit simplest of targets and we are supposed to believe somehow the Mig21 managed to shoot an F-16 with R-73.

And the irony of it - happens on 27th Feb 🤣 Lol
