no its was mother of all defence deals as i remember . no one have ever bought 36 fighter planes together

in 2002 we buy 120 + 80 options
in 2007 we buy 80 - 4 options
in 2014 we buy 36

next few years we buy 24 - 18 options

those were copy of 50 vintage Mig-21, F-7PG not comparable with 4+++ Rafale .

Janab, when USAF inducted F-16, they ordered 36 unit in first batch.

And those are only Fly away condition with G2G Deal. The other offset order will come next.

Cheers Karo aur So Jao Janab.

Contract for 36 Rafales on verge of finalisation: Government sources Published September 12, 2016
SOURCE: PTI
The contract for 36 Rafales is in the last stages of finalisation and the multi-billion Euro deal with France could be announced soon. “Finer points of the contract are being worked out. The deal is almost in final stages,” government sources said. Last month, a report submitted by a team negotiating the much-anticipated Rafale deal with France was cleared by the defence ministry. The file was then sent to the Prime Minister’s office for review and clearance.


Sources said the PMO had sought from Defence Ministry some clarifications on the life cycle costs and unit price of the aircraft which was replied to. French sources have said they are expecting a positive development this month. During his visit to France in April last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had announced that India would purchase 36 Rafale jets in a government-to-government contract. Soon after the announcement, the defence ministry scrapped a separate process that was on to purchase 126 Rafale fighter planes, built by French defence giant Dassault Aviation. The deal is expected to be worth around 7.89 billion euros for the 36 fighter jets in fly away conditions. The weapon systems, part of the deal, will also include the new-age, beyond visual range missile, Meteor, and Israeli helmet mounted display. The price of the deal was brought down from nearly 10 billion euros, as sought initially, due to various reasons including tough negotiation by India, the discount offered by the French government and reworking of some of the criteria. It is not clear if the price has been brought down further, but India has been keen on it.

Those Pilots already have 4+ Gen fighter plane namely Su-30 MKI, but I wonder PAF pilot might dream of flying atleast 4th Gen plane, because only lucky one could get the chance of flying F-16 block 52, because there are only 18 in number.

It has much less to do with Indians in love with talking about more to do with two unreasonably stubborn countries butting heads. We don't have the same problem with the Russians.

But we have other problems with Russians.

Good Day!

LOL True, but we are using Russian weaponry since past 50 yrs so accustomed to fix it now ?
