Why is every Indian member here rooting for Rafael not the EF?

 

[Kompromat]

Typhoon remains the favorite.

For all the fanboys who think that the Tejas is a copy of the Mirage 2000 it is for them. 1)Firstly the Mirage 2000 has its air intakes above the wing just behind the aircraft fuselage whereas in the Tejas the air intakes are serpentine air intakes located under the wing behind the fuselage this goes to show the differences in its airframe structure. 2)The wings of The Tejas is made almost entirely of Carbon Fibre Composites whereas the Mirage 2000 has its wings made titanium alloy with a carbon-alloy linning.

because ef is still not fully ready (a2g) and rafale is all ready and more upgrades are coming though ef is also a very good choice but it will take time to mature which iaf cant afford

 

[Awesome]

The Americans truly didn't deserve the Indian order, they got what was coming to them, playing both sides. They antagonized Pakistan so much to get this deal, hopefully when they come crawling back we will be looking towards China too.

Logic states they should go for EF. No conflicts of interest with Pakistan. France unlike the Americans will continue to sell to Pakistan as long as we want to buy something from them. Its also several years a newer platform than the Rafale.

Pakistan needs to act fast we should go J-10B as soon as possible otherwise it can be to late

 

[casual]

what the hell happened? the F18 was a much better deal for india.

Recently France has cancelled an big order from Pakistan for up-gradation of mirage and another order to buy some more jets after request from India as they will be used against India in war. So this not so simple that you will get what you will ask,the f-16 from america are a gift and is of bad quality.Pakistan government don have enough money to give an equivalent order to France.
