Are we really confident it's Rafale engine? I am not a defence expert so I can't claim either. But I see everyone claiming everything under the living SUN.
As per my understanding if there is part of an engine broken from a flying aircraft, it will be miraculous to regain the control and land the bird in one piece and again I am not a defence expert, so this is my personal opinion.
150 hours/year is low. Surprising for a country which lacks jets squads....
