I can’t help being dubious on a program that needs upgrades (aka tech refresh) to perform before it IOT&E, sorry. If e.g. a new computer is given, it is because it is needed. Not just for fun. If it is needed it is because its computing power was underestimated/poorly planned. Same for EOTS/laser bombs etc.

According to news agency Belgacom, dfinitive choice would be made in favour of F-35 over Typhoon.

That is why there aare ccoefficients etc applied to offsets. Very complicated stuff. Wasn’t the articla neutral? Off the mic, Dassault techs and engineers were horrified by the MRO of 2000H when they expertised them for upgrade.

Best source on Mirage 2000D “in the cockpit” is the book “La Guerre Vue du Ciel” from LCL Schaeffler. Pretty sure he would accept to sell rigths for english version for a reasonable price btw.

Ajai Shukla usual ranting. Btw, the “famous” document used by mediapart leaked, you will see it very soon. It si a communist linked trade union document, nothing such as an “inner document”. and HAL has around 10% of the offsets also as Kaveri, and DRDO 30%!!! Ghandi is riduclizing himself everyday a little more on this topic.

How many had so long and complicated and troubled development that they COULD test 3 times lifetime fatigue? (and whith what results?)
