@bonplan is correct of course ...but you it is not the first time that you spam IDF with BS about Rafale. I guess you are enjoying it.

Last I checked : the F-22 does not have an helmet-mounted display and cueing system. This technology is overrated .

@smestarz tarz Important update at your attention : the date on your computer is 2016, not 1940 or 1954 or 1958.. all the bad things you constantly like to refer to are way behind us, @BonPlan and I were born after. I am feeling pretty comfortable living in XXI th century, in...

I hope nobody ' s paying attention to thie insane amount of nonsense you keep posting .. Rafale put into storage ( only in your imagination) and now France paying for the Egyptian deal ( that is the kind of stories you hear daily from uninformed dummies in France) . It is not because there is a...

I did think about it ! The Indian Navy already dreams of Rafale M days and nights for its third carrier. Just wait and see, adorable smestarz !

Actually looking at http://www.deccanchronicle.com/150223/nation-current-affairs/article/big-deal-aero-india-anil-ambani-buys-2-falcon-jets seems that Anil Ambani too likes Falcons. Whatever you think of Egypt, it has not a small air force at all, with more than 200 F-16 in service. And they...

You are an hopeless cause .. just for your information , Dassault sells lot of Falcon Jets each year, without help of your Gujrati MBAs. Mukesh Ambani has one ;)

The Egyptians will appreciate being categorized as a small country ;-) their air force is very large, too. About Boeing , yes, they are a bit desperate at the moment with losing bids after bids against Saab, Eurofighter, and Dassault.

If Rafale deal gets through : both IAF and Indian Navy will lobby for extra Rafales. It is called " commonality". You can' t go against that logic. Another way of putting things would be to say : the cuckoo is in the nest.

Smestarz, stop describing your behaviour, that hurts !

India mulling manufacture of 2nd line of fighter planes: Raha India is considering manufacturing indigenously a second line of fighter aircraft and a decision on the issue will be taken within a year, Indian Air Force (IAF) Chief Air Chief Marshal Arup Raha said on Friday. Asked about the...

"You're a feisty little one, but you'll soon learn some respect. I have need for you on the master's sail barge, and I think you'll fill in nicely." French translation : " Tu es un petit bagarreur ! "

Hmm. You want to talk with Bon Plan for the technical details ! He is much more informed than I am. The way I understand it, such simulation centers have 4 networked simulators, each perfect copies of a Rafale cockpit. With 4 cabins you can create room for 4 pilots with two twin-seats Rafale B...

About that whole thread : one of the fighter aircraft to be built in India by private sector will be the Rafale. The second one will be a pink unicorn .

India will need to build a Rafale simulation center. France has two of them. This is very expensive .. probably in the _€ 100 -200 million range. Qatar and Egypt seem to have ordered this. Lot of technical info available there : http://www.sogitec.com/pdf/INTER28A/InterActions_28_EN.pdf

But Dassault group is more than @Dassault_OnAir. There is also @Dassault3ds, $ 3 billion sales in 2015. Dassault Systems sure has some Indian programmers working with them :). More , Rafale team is Dassault + Thales + Safran. A much more powerful combo than Saab.

Every jet likely to be obsolete without UCAV escort by 2040 :-)
