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

. . . . .
Whats next when rafale fails? I have not seen more paranoid people than indians with rafale.
Nothing. With or without the Rafaels, the IAF is toast against the PLAAF. The Chinese would seize air superiority within the first 24 hours of hostilities and maintain it for the rest of the war. The 36 Rafaels would offer only a token capability upgrade against the hundreds of J-10C and J-16 fighters (not to mention the J-20). Besides, the Indians would need years to familiarize themselves with the Rafael ... if war is to happen within that few years, the token capability upgrade would be even smaller.

Damn! These guys are seriously desperate. What happens when the Indian public finds out that the PLAAF operates 6th Gen J20s with longer range PL15s :cry: :cry:

In their dream they can have F-22.
In reality that is US top of the line, not up for sale even to US closest allies.

India can have F-21 though - Lmao
The US should have named the F-21 to the F-23 to fool the Indians into thinking they would be offering a superior product to the F-22 :rofl::rofl::rofl:. Given the nature of many posts by Indian members here, I am sure they would have no problem believing such a thing.

India should have got the F-22 as a backup, its a pretty useful aircraft, the US was willing to sell the production line to India as well.

But Indians and strategy is a long-running joke, the CCP is massed all along the border, Galwan is now under Chinese control and India has lost so much territory it's not even funny anymore.

I'm sorry but where has the US ever indicated a willingless to sell the F-22 production line to India? AFAIK it has consistently refused to sell it to its closest allies UK/Japan or the rest of NATO. How would it sell the F-22 to India, who not only purchases a bunch of Russian weaponry but also is not in any alliance with the US?

As for the second paragraph, I fully concur.
