futuristic but ineffective.F35 has futuristic subsystems in an subpar ill designed body.
LM has to change it all....
And always in the same bad born body.

? An economical lesson by Smestarz !
What link with MBT ?
But for your information :
GB : 250 Challenger 2
D : 400 Leopard 2
Spain : 300 Leopard 2
F : 300 Leclerc
and some more.... Poland, Grece, NL, Denmark, Sweden....
More than enough to fight against the too few modern russian tanks and the hundreds of obsolete ones. All driven buy half alcoholics crew, not paid every month and seeing a fire training camp every 3/5 years....
Germany and France are so poor they decided to launch a new MBT and a new fighter....
as ever you didn't read all the post before answering.... (keep calm and take your medicine Bro).400 German leopards 2 are enough for facing Russian tank army?
They mainly lost thousand and thousand tanks against german ones !The Russians have in past fought and won tank wars and one of the biggest tank wars.
Germany and France are so poor that now they have to pool their resources to make new tanks and new planes which they really cannot afford to buy !!
Thats the problem. Too futuristic at the time led to subpar illdesigned. There will be a Conference for 6 months results the 18th by Trappier, sorry i will e on holidays.
futuristic but ineffective.

A very nice detailed article how our "friends" the French actually behave ..
The 'miscellaneous' blunder in India's Rafale deal
Sep 2014
Sep 2014
In what appears to be a rerun of the Scorpene project, around 50-60 ‘un-priced’ items are believed to have been listed as miscellaneous’ in Dassault’s offer for the Rafale which emerged as L1 or the lowest bidder in the MMRCA tender ahead of the Eurofighter.
MoD sources claim that it is these sundry articles that have emerged as the principal financial hurdle in negotiating the Rafale deal on the basis of its Life Cycle Cost based on keeping the fighter operational for four decades.
It appears that subsequent pricing by Dassault of these so-called miscellaneous but critical items -- like in the Scorpene tender -- in its deliberations with the MoD’s Cost Negotiation Committee, are responsible for significantly inflating the Rafale contract cost, jeopardising the vendors L1 status and delaying its closure.
Just to explain, its like selling Say 1000 sq ft house in prime area in Vizag at rs 20L and then being told that teh cost of rebars, the cement, the and bricks is extra ,, not much but when you count all the cost it ends up being 5 crore. I do assume you will still take it
The 36 Rafale order was inked after 2014..... ask yourself why.The behaviour dear parthu, and its not like the article was a century ago.. Thats their behaviour which had actually caused AK Anthony not being eager to sign Rafale deal, They inncoently put some critical points in Miscellanous things? LOL

source ?The whole of india is asking why give in to whims and fancies of IAF which seems to be compromised !!
I am not sure about planets, but certainly the RFP norms are .source ?
My bet is that MMRCA2 will be given to Rafale. All the planets are aligned for that. Just see it.
