Dassault Rafale, tender | News & Discussions [Thread 2]

[BON PLAN]

Yaar, didn't they start building the infrastructure for Rafales a while back. I thought they would be ready to start delivering MII Rafales by 2018/2019.

The cost is too high. No pre building before a firmed contract.

Please CNL-PN-AA, give us some more informations on the Rafale Qatar configuration because it could be easily available for India.

He told me something about that already, but I don't know if I should post it.

For assembly, you don't need a lot of infrastructure. Production will happen only post 2020.

MII negotiations have not even started, heck the strategic partnership clauses in DPP are still not done. So nothing will happen until DPP is completely ready and a jet is chosen.

Meh, the DAC meets fortnightly under this GoI/DM, I'm not too concerned when we all know the Rafale is moving to completion rather swiftly now. The remaining hurdles are procedural (DAC and CCS clearance) and can be granted in a matter of weeks if the PM so wishes.

I am not that optimistic. Maybe in sola years.

I think after dozen years we will start speaking half French and you will start speaking other Half Indi (Hindi)
