Deal to buy 36 Rafale jets runs into trouble; India & France struggle to agree on sales terms: Sourc

Yep it seems everyone here (apart from the Indians of course) figured that France would do anything to avoid ToT.

Why would they destroy their own business model by giving all the tech and knowledge to their customers? It never made any sense, and even if they did give away tech, it would be the older tech (not their cutting edge stuff).

India is lucky here though. If France is squeezing this much in peace time, imagine how much they would squeeze if India ever got in a war.
Correct. Even if France does not squeeze them during wartime they would be in big trouble if war broke out in the sub continent.

thanks for your understanding and cooperation. I have reversed rating for the edited post on behalf of Milspec. the other main offensive post is now editable.
please let me know when you have fixed it and I will also reverse the rating as instructed by Milspec.

Mr. Irfan: The other post has been updated. Thank you for all of your help. Much appreciate it.

@ADMINISTRATOR @WebMaster @moderator

Plz create a list of your 10-20 leading posters----. These are your pointmen---any issues---please discuss it with them before taking any action.

I would agree with you MK. Everytime I've read your post and a few others', whether I agree with it or not, I do realize and see great knowledge, experience, professionalism and a solid argument. And from that point on, we could love each other or disagree with each other but its all within respectful means. Similarly, the posters who bring wealth of knowledge (like yourself) to the table, should be involved in some discussions.

I don't think any of us make money out of here (in fact it takes a lot of time), but its the topics and our passion about certain topics that we like to write about. The more professional content, the better the discussion and an overall healthier experience.

Ok fair enough.
Anything else?

Its not matured yet.

Kid,

that is the least of the worries----. F4 phantom had an under powered engine---and so did the F 14 Tomcat----.

Under powered engine is no worry at all in this BVR heavy environment and if there is HOBS capability as well----you can fly a brick and that will destroy the enemy.

Are you in your 40s, beacuse only then you can call me kid.

Point is JF is underpowered at the moment and on top of that its RD 93.

JF 17 cant reach its full potencial unless it gets more powerful engine.

Is that why both Su 27 and F 22 have TWR in excess of 1?
 
TOT is not in the best interest of France because the whole point is to make more money in the future not to teach Indians how to make fighters.

DRDO will not be able to make fighters even with 100% TOT so don't worry about that.

Please don't forget to undo the second negative rating as we agreed. The post was updated but the rating is still there.
@MilSpec : see above. Not sure if you need to do it or Irfan.

I personally think the DRDO needs to partner up with the US and Israel, send their scientists there to assist with some projects, and then bring that knowledge home to start working and actually delivering stuff. Right now, its taking 20-30 years for some projects to get done and that with still work needing to be done. And at the end, when its the most difficult to fix something close to finish, you are involving expensive US and Israeli consultants. If you do this before or when you start a project, it would be much beneficial to the Indian tax payers.

These things will work if the DRDO had people with basic qualifications working for them.

DRDO is a government organisation and like all things sarkari in India DRDO sucks. The scientists have no knowledge on the projects they work. It took arjun 40 years and they are still working on it, tejas took 30 years and they are still working on it, the prototype for 155 mm arty gun is yet to be tested, INSAS is a joke. And the latest fiasco is this chakra rath, the Indian version of BMP.

DRDO employees get their jobs by paying bribes or by pulling strings and using their contacts. An American high school science student will design a better tank engine than these jokers at DRDO. The BMP Chakra Rath is evidence enough.
 
LOL, really? How about you return our jobs and donated dollars and industry and go back to the piss hole you used to live in back till the mid nineties? You people are the only species on earth who'll cut the hand that fed you. Back stabbers as others say it!!!! SO PLEASE RETURN OUR JOBS AND TAKE YOUR H1's HOME. THE US IS NO LONGER IN DONATION AND MERCY BUSINESS TO BRING THE INDIAN MIDDLE CLASS UP AGAINST THE CHINESE. AS YOUR PM AND FM BEGGED THE US IN THE CLINTON'S TIME. TELL MR. RAO AND MR. SINGH WE SAID NO THANK YOU AND THE FRENCH GAVE YOU A BIG JUICY MIDDLE FINGER ON RAFALE.

If you think you can act cocky...Cock is my middle name, think again!!! Act per forums rules and get off of your periods, or come back when the bleeding stops so your mood can get better!

Deal to buy 36 Rafale jets runs into trouble; India & France struggle to agree on sales terms: Sourc | Page 5

@MilSpec : hey Christmas Lights, you gave me negative ratings due to insulting "nationality". What did you do to your cousin from India's post who actually made me respond the way I did? Here's the content from his post:

slow down pal !!!!!!!!!!

Who u calling back stabbers????
You are as dumb as the rest of Americans.
Read the history and reread it again if u can't comprehend, India's GDP was 23% of the world before back-stabbing foreigners came and robbed us, divided us. You need to lay off the shit you are smoking.

You wanna know the truth, We, the foreigners, feed you. Most Americans are too dumb to add 2+2.

Who's working at NASA??? How many foreigners are there???? Its full of them.
Who's working in Silicon Valley?????
The foreigners made America, u give em respect.
Even the the first moon walk, was because of the German scientists.

Now take that same cock n stick it where sun don't shine..

actually he responded to your post, not he other way around.... you responded again with profanities to his post..... thus you had two rating, one is already reversed, edit the other one and that will be reversed too..... btw I Reported his post too... Did not rate him because he responded to your post which introduced profanities on the thread.

the post you quoted was a response to your post #62... hope that clarifies.

For future reference, do not insult other countries by referring them to as shit holes and other adjectives. If you find someone's post offensive, use the report button to report them.

Thank you. Appreciate the help :tup:

actually he responded to your post, not he other way around.....
All I asked was, someone used wrong verbiage and language. Just like you were SO AWAKE on my post, what did you do to the other person? Two people cutting the red light, doesn't mean the first one gets a ticket. You live here, you know both people violated the rules and the law. So please help me understand, WHY did you not give the other person negative rating as well? He used some seriously sick language.....

@Irfan Baloch : Is Milspec the new owner of this site? Check out the above answer. He gave me negative ratings but let his buddy go clean and that's not the rules of the forum or a right thing to do. You can't restrict and kick one party and ignore the one as he's your cousin from Mumbai!

I thought one of the owner was here in the US and someone else was in Pakistan with a few people being friends and mods between the US, Pakistan, UK, etc.
