India paid U$S 288 million for each one of these
any definitive evidence that india has lost jets? this is actually important since it's not often we'll get to see modern jets in battle
How many years in shitjeet wages is that
India paid U$S 288 million for each one of these
and then they put an Indian in it
Just trust me bro from all the chinks and mohammadans who infest this board now.
they are so fucking mad
not even trying to call it fake news on their media while even france acknowledges they at least 1, maybe 3
Why is US selling French aircraft?
This plane looks like vomit.
Vs AESA radars + long range AA missiles they might as well put a monkey into it. No stealth = you're dead.
Paying $288M for a 4.5th gen each
They got scammed lol
Rafale has amazing EW capability actually, Indians are just retarded.
also sauce

Here is the French intelligence confirmation from CNN
x.com
At least one.
That shit is supposed to work automatically, not like pic related during flight.
kek the Rafale apologists will never recover
Wonderwaffle status? BUCK BROKEN!
CNN is reporting a quote from a French intelligence officer directly now.

Copejeets
Literal who
interdasting
there's videos of wreckage
How is this even possible? They could literally buy 3 f35 with that amount of money
Based. Fuck Pakistan, remember they are our enemy. They hid and harbored bin Laden, I will never forget.
That’s the promise we all made as a country after the attacks, never forget. I say we never forgive, either. Muslims are disgusting and evil, they literally destroy every country they touch.
Kinda makes sense why Israel hates Islam so much, they see the evil shit they do first hand, it’s why India hates pakis because they have been attacking them like cowards for YEARS! It’s why we wll went to war with Daesh and against Islamic insurgents in the Middle East.
I support India in the fight against Islamic evil.
Stealth tech is priceless
Can’t put a price on superiority
Engine wreckage points to a dead Rafale
How many Google Gift cards is that?
youre a indian hindJEW we want to see you get nuked. No REAL Americans support you poojeets.
Nope, white proud American with 2 blonde kids and a white blue eyed wife.
I’m ex navy, I just hate how everyone seems to have forgotten what happened in 2001…never forget. I have seen up close what Islam does, deport and send them all back so they can implode on themselves.
India has been more than patient with their awful neighbor, now that blood is spilled suddenly the world cares…or are you scared of our nukes? Modi knows what he’s doing, he is in talks with Vance and we will find a solution
Assuming the $288M included ordnance, special electronic suite, future maintenance, and other logistical bullshit costs. Still, it's basically a sports car purchase - to flex on its poorer neighbors. If it was indeed got downed by a $40-50M J-10c adversary, that would be funny.

lol
lmao
Why do people keep citing this schizo rusophile gypsy?
Lmao pajeets got scammed by the frogs.
The US supported and sold Pakistan lots of our equipment.
They have lots of Raytheon produced AIM-120s and AGM missiles.
I own RTX stock and hope they do well.
You sound unpatriotic you pub sec loser.
*their nukes
You can’t really call some weapon system shit just cause it got destroyed in some engagement.
There’s many factors at play here.
War in Ukraine already demonstrated there isn’t some vast technological disparity between Western and non-Western gear. But serious people always knew that.
Imagine how much cheaper it could be.
That's government spending for you.
Maybe we should stick to Russian junks, desu.
EVERYONE LOOK AND LAUGH AT THIS COPING BUTTHURT PAJEET CALLING A CNN ANCHOR A LITERAL WHO
What we also saw in Ukraine is that despite all gizmos and shit aircraft can’t roam freely and strafe shit in a defended airspace. Ukrainians pretty much severely limited the operational envelope of Russian Air Force using mostly late 80s Soviet gear (albeit with substantial NATO support).
Using stealth aircraft en masse is still a theoretical possibility, but I highly doubt you’ll ever see F-35s drop dumb bombs on tank columns.
Even such aircraft have to use stand-off munitions which kinda defeats the point of stealth. And these aircraft require RAM coatings which are expensive as fuck and which complicate maintenance to a high degree.
Sure, it can fly with degraded stealth, but then it’s no different to any 4th generation fighter.
if you were really white and American you would know Osama was a CIA asset and Israel did 9/11 moron, you're a hindJEW. kys.
Pakis supported us by giving us their air bases and strategic land to fight the taliban moron thats why they get our American tech and not hindJEWs.
Pakistan rescued our Black Hawk Down soldiers too moron.
I fucking hate Pakistan I don’t care you mother fucker bitch the one right doesn’t make up for the million wrongs they do, the terror on Hindu civilians you evil bastard supporter
US military is spending 50000 dollars on trash cans. I’m not even joking or exaggerating.
It’s a massive graft. This is why comparing military budgets was always idiotic. Spending 5 or 8 times as much on a shell is crippling disparity, even if that shell is a work of the art and performs 50% better than the cheaper one. It’s just not sustainable in a serious conflict.
And some people in Western military establishments are starting to understand that, but I doubt much will change. The interplay (corruption) between MIC, government and legislature is rock-solid. There’s no serious opposition to the graft.
Even what Trump administration is doing is nothing but smoke and mirrors.
This might be a controversial and dumb-sounding statement, but from everything I saw and read and deduced, Chinese would fucking annihilate Americans in a real conflict.
Tbh the Rafale with AESA radar and Meteor missiles should outmatch the Chinese J-10C with PL-15 missiles. However they're close in performance and other factors such as ground radars could affect the outcome. Also perhaps it was just shot down by an anti-air system.
SAAR
Joke's on you Ivan: their other planes that got shot down were russian.
You guys didn't want more Russian stuff because they're at war with the excuse that there would be problems with maintenance and moving spare parts and armaments. I just think Indian government is wary of CAATSA. But you could have just bought something from the Swedes or Americans and it still wouldn't cost as much. Hell, why not just procure more of your own Tejas.
My bet is they sent them in without any intel and just told them 'do bombs.' They probably had no idea there were even air defenses until they were already being fired on. Panic ensues and they just dump the plane, probably never even hit.
Probably with our own anti-air system. But I don't mind.
Wouldn't be the first time something like that happened. Saudis rolled up in Yemen with their shiny toys knowing nothing ahead with incompetent leadership at the helm only to get spooked and ran losing a lot of those in the process.
burgeroids will shut it down if they don't like you
the french would sell to hitler if they could and give him complete tech transfer
Chinese would fucking annihilate Americans in a real conflict.
Our military is fucking tiny now compared to the iraq war era US army everyone was scared of. None of our fleets can meet basic combat readiness standards. Our only countermeasure against new ballistic missile systems is minutemans from the 1960's that have zero chance of intercepting them because they can evade and have built in countermeasures. Those of us aware are increasingly nervous about the fact. Like we're being set up deliberately to lose a coming war more spectacularly than anyone ever has in human history.
Shill post.
canards are gay
Hopefully France sold the poos dud planes where poos won't notice the malfunction until they really need to use it.
US does that when selling weapons to saudi sandniggers.
