Cute accusations. Pointing out the other planes' flaws is now called trolling? Must explain the mindset of some people around. But, please, I am clearly a sockpuppet, it must explain everything. Of course.
The French have had to put some interesting deals in place to support this and I suspect called in a lot of favours to make these decisions happen.
Well, less corruption than in the Saudi situation, that's for sure. At least we don't need our prime minister to tell the guys investigating the accusations to drop them.
Typhoon remains credible in a number of competitions, but rafale will have a boost from recent developments. But medium term good luck to the French affording a new design to replace it...
Typhoon will remain credible only if its upgrades actually go through and it catches up to the Rafale. Depends on the political will of its manufacturers.
