A french paper making a 1USD to 1 Euro estimate on purpuse? 4500USD/flighthour are Gripens most acknowlaged figure

Advertised, not aknowledge, the plane do not exist yet…:dev2:

AVIATION – The prospect of an order for 60 fighter aircraft by Dassault Aviation United Arab Emirates resurfaced …

Finally, light at the end of the tunnel for Dassault Aviation? France keeps hoping to sell its Rafale to the United Arab Emirates, even if the contract will not be signed during the visit of François Hollande in the country next week, according to French diplomatic sources.

The prospect of an order for 60 fighter aircraft by Dassault Aviation Emirates resurfaced in turn with a possible interest in Qatar and Kuwait. Exclusive negotiations are also underway for a year for delivery of 126 aircraft Rafale and India is also one of the possible choices of Brazil, which plans to acquire at least 36 aircraft.

As the stock market rises

“The case is still on the table, he is likely to succeed and it is also linked to other records Rafale export to other countries,” said a French diplomat before the visit of François Holland Abu Dhabi and Dubai next Tuesday, along with defense ministers, Jean-Yves Le Drian, and Foreign Affairs, Laurent Fabius. “If the question is: is that the contract will be signed during the visit of President of the Republic, the answer is no,” he added.
Dassault Aviation declined to comment, as usual group on export markets.

The action of the manufacturer wins 2.04% to 800 euros to 13:20, while the CAC-40 remains stable. The manufacturer sought for years to sell its first fighter aircraft for export, which would automatically reduce the fiscal pressure on the French government, which must compensate the shortfall by ordering over Rafale the manufacturer.

Cour des comptes

@jack i havent spoken about NAO report, although i have read it.
Another point is that Rafale GIE funded 25% of R&D dev.
I havent bought this week “Canard”, so i cannot state about its content.

Cool down, jackonicko, even your employers (Times Group) are now praising Rafale.
For years you have been bashing it with urban rumours like “underpowered” “unable to supercruise in hot wet conditions”, “poor radar” “long leverage canards super manoeuvrability” etc.
Point is when u intended to praise Typhoon , which definitely do not need you as it is a very capable fighter, you did it by bashing rafale.
You recently declared that rafale was dropped from UAE, wanna take a quid bet?
REcently YOUR press group stated about 20% cheaper price for Rafale.

Now about your statements.

You keep saying that EFA will bring much better capabilities in the future etc. Any clue? NO

Give me these clues, i’ll sincerely listen to them

You are blaming the consortium about its inability to give a clear financed roadmap, we agree on that point.

You are blaming Germans for negociations, as of UK did better in Singapore for ex.

You are even admitting Rafale is more mature, again i agree with you.

You claimed LCL Grandclaudon as “an obscure officer”, sorry he is the leader of 1/7 Provence (the same very ones that deadly ass kicked EFA in Solenzara).

You dared to criticize Phil Collins opinion, eaven if you do not have 1/100th of his knwoledge about fighters

I do like EFA fighter, but your constant bashing of Rafale just make me disgust your opinion
Etc. Etc.

No more, i do not wan to become insulting
