France will provide three more fighters to Egypt this year. Egypt want to equip it's two squadron with advance French fighters........

Why is Egypt so eager to add Rafale to its fleet right away that French Air Force will supply its used Rafale rather than brand new fighters ?

The fighters were destined for the French Air Force. So they are straight off their production line. They are not used.

Wow! This is amazing. This is how defense deals should be done. Quick and decisive. A lesson for India which has been pathetic and inefficient looking for a jet for a decade.
