The Typhoon's delivery schedules will also affect its prospects, and the fact that currently it is available only in A2A form.
The Typhoon partners are now assembling their Tranche 2 Typhoons, which are able to carry out full A2G operations, as well as the fact Eurofighter would allow the Indians to form their own production line could look like quite a positive move on their behalf, but I agree they are unlikely to select it.
