Are These Brand New Rafales !

[darksider]

I have just saw the pics I would say indian govt knew about this.
As if france was selling 2nd hand jets as a brand new, my Local painter would have done a better job.
So i would say what we purchased we got. In few days whole story will come out.

Your response is very sane.
Not like bs arguments other trying to give. Its good to see sane indians sometimes.

Indians paid $250 million a piece for used Rafales.

We need J-31 asap cz this is not even a single doubt, a threat.

You want an aircraft that is not even developed yet.

Must have put in through some turbulence that even the panels came off or did it need service after few months or maybe its an old jet that was refurbished.

Looks like RB 003 is going into the shed for another coat of paint. USAF spend 5 billion dollars on paint each year, typically the USAF F-16 is repainted every 6 to 7 years. It is unusual for a brand new Rafale to need a fresh coat of paint So soon but like I said earlier the RB003 was used as a test bench and trainer and I suspect a lot of low level supersonic flights to cause paint to come off so soon.

At this very point of History, I must ask PAF directors that what is our policy to counter that threat? @Windjammer

Offer free fantastic tea....they will crash themselves

PAF that defends our borders is as calm as a cucumber and you are all hot and bothered. Experts vs you ...
Ummm

How are you, Windy? Hope everything is fine on your side, its been a long time ......

Old or New they can never beat Pakistani F-16s .... so what difference it will make to Pakistan whether they are new or old

A group of very talented Indians now have very big Swiss bank accounts. I'm constantly astounded by Indian ingenuity.

A month back I posted something and the mods deleted it and asked me not to let the cat out of the bag, so preferring silence.

Yes all good dude, thank you.
Well the worrying thing is the Rafales flew in with an escort of Raptor of the east.
With AMRAAM dodgers in the scene...what chance for F-16s.

The Indian Air Force recently took delivery of five Rafale fighter aircraft.
These are said to be brand new aircraft but compared to French Air Force jets, a close look reveals either a poor or old paint job on IAF aircraft.

They were deliver in hurry by French if china n pak attack india. I said in early post they were used for ten years. French needs money to develop their new 5th generation jet and they got that money from india. 27feb india lost its credibility and they trying heard to get back in the eyes of international military establishms..they not just lost battle 27 feb they lost lots of diplomatic leverage on foreign office as well..foreign diplomats are treating them as big mouth idiots. Because your military power gives confidence to your foreign office.smart diplomat use this confidence into benfits for country. After 27feb and china entering into indian occupied areas justify my argument.

Hoep you have analyzed the India media even disclosed the name, and home addresses all 7 pilots , I never understand why they disclose such info . This plane is only qualitative addition since Mirages whats even fanboys say su-30 was never given much qualitative edge, other then if someone considers quantity is a quality
