Default MMRCA: Dassault Rafale over Eurofighter

Aviation Week

Congrats for Dassault in its first export order but a blow to Eurofighter. Don't see Eurofighter winning in S Korea

Better plane won. And Rafale remains undefeated by Craphoon in a fair competition.

Er ! Beg to differ Stefan.
According to reports the Typhoon beat the Rafale hands down in all aspects of the comparison flight and capability tests. The only reason the Rafale was chosen was because the French discounted the price.
Can't have all those Indian billionaires spending too much money can we now !
What pisses me off is that the UK gives £1.2Billion to India in foreign aid, most of which is trousered by said corrupt billionaires long before it ever gets a chance to be where it's needed.
What do the French give in foreign aid ? .... Bugger all.

Bringing this thread back up :P

If you look at the Swiss Air Force Report, The Rafale has beaten the Typhoon in nearly all of the parameters....
