The report says a preliminary agreement for the acquisition has been reached. Ten of these fighters will be the F3-R variant built from scratch while the other 8 jets will be second-hand aircraft that will be transferred free to Greece from the French Air Force.

None realistically, best choice would be to invest in a solid IADS, S-400s, shorter systems, PD etc. Their choices for aircraft are beyond limited

Modi's kickback case in Rafale is still pending. Expect some 100 million / aircraft would've gone to Modi's own account.

If France can give Greece 8 free units, I expect Indians should've got a few. Don't you think?

Now their option is very limited . SU -35 or SU- 57 is better than nothing. Now they may acquire more ADs. Ballistic missile deterrence is a must. Now they should improve missile capabilities to eliminate any threat within hours.

India will also pay for that Mexican wall

Global realignment of proxies... France proping up Turkey enemies, Greece and Egypt. French are pissed at Turkish interference in Northern Africa.

India is financing NATO Ummah

 

[MMM-E]

Turkiye develops its own TFX Fighter Jet .... even in 2029 , 4,5+ generation TFX Fighter Jet will be enough to match with Greek F-16V and Rafale , also Egyptian SU-35 and Rafale

and Turkish Ballistic and Cruise Missiles can destroy Greek air base which will host Rafale Fighter Jets in hours ..... and GAME OVER !

also if needed , Turkiye can activite S400 Air Defense Systems in 48 hours to turn RAFALEs into crap of metal
also Turkish SIPER long range and high altitude Air Defense System will be ready in 2023
and Turkish HISAR-O Air Defense System is ready to intercept Fighter Jets and Cruise Missiles


also Turkiye will build 7 TF-2000 class air warfare Destroyers armed with 64x HISAR and 32x SIPER air defense missiles with 450 km CAFRAD naval AESA Radar to block Eastern Mediterranean against Fighter Jets



Greece never can match with regional super power Turkiye
