The Thunder Block 5's AESA radar doesn't exist yet, so India's Rafale has no radar???

Merci, mon ami!

It looks beautiful as ever.

Now that France has taken leadership of Europe effectively, you guys should decide the collective issues of EU security and defence industry policies.

I see president Macron has already started asking your companies to reduce US-made components in your defence products.

That, is very promising.

Given the hush-hush attitude of the government, I doubt that would happen. They got scared of a false allegation and are right now banging heads with the Supreme Court on the pricing. Seriously! Our airmen are dying every year due to crashes and Supreme Court cannot even not stop meddling in defence as if Congress has done any less damage.

CAG has also reported that there was no scam.

Yet, the government machinery is so slow that unless we have Modi along the lines of Xi Jinping, defence would ever reform in time.
