RFI says so, they are suppose to read RFI and then apply for tender, you just cant change the terms of RFI at the end of shortlisting.I just don't understand how the MOD can insist that dassault is responsible for the work that HAL does.
How are the French supposed to agree to this. Are they supposed to send hundreds of engineers from Dassault to HAL Banglore and watch what the HAL engineers are doing ?
If the HAL assembly is not done correctly or Uses bad parts - is Dassault going to be responsible for that ?
Then India has right to ask the second bidder to see what he says.
As per what you said about French response, now a days machining is done on CNC manchines, for that they have to sell the CNC and trained the HAL guys, that is all, if they dont do it, then what. Plus Rafale is saying Reliance will do it better then HAL
Relience has 0.00000000000000000000000000 experience in Defence, what to say of fighter aircraft. Only aircraft which Reliance have is the business jet used by its CEO.......
..... around $20billion for hardly '126' 4th generation aircraft, while PAK FA/FGFA is also in pipeline, would have their production starting from 2020+, for what India has already committed $35billion???? here, why to pay higher price for a 4++ aircraft if even lesser is needed for the 5th gen PAK FA/FGFA? we do know that Rafale is considered as the best Multi Role 4++ gen aircraft by many forums, true, but Mig35 with many 5th gen tech, with a more powerful AESA radar etc, is definitely better than a match than even the Mig29k, the IN is buying for its newest AC?????
. I remember, even Mirage2000-5mk2 was on offer for this same MRCA in 2007, while even right now this deal is delayed, not expected to be signed by even 2014
