Former Indian PM Rajiv Gandhi may have been "a middleman" for Swedish firm Saab-Scania when it was trying to sell Viggen fighter aircraft to Delhi in the 1970s, says Wikileaks.

We actually do have a deep state, but it's beholden to the west.

It's floating(on flattery) state then .. not deep state

The part we should be looking at is Tejas mk1A costs mere 43 million dollars, this will go even lower for the next 97 mk1As.
You get 7 mk1As for the price of 1 rafale.

Tejas and the Super Sukhois will also be more deeply integrated into India’s network-centric warfare ecosystem. The Indian Rafales became the most expensive fighter jets in the world primarily because of their integration into this ecosystem — the cost of integration significantly increased the overall price of the Rafales.

We needed technocrats who are heavily educated and with tough attitude, examples are rajiv chandrasekhar ji , ashwini vaishnaw ji, s jaishankar ji and manohar parrikar ji

Political science students will never understant the importance of r&d and technology, hope rajnath ji retires soon and rather joins bjp highcommand and gives MoD to some knowledgeable technocrat

waise S Jaishankarji political science ke student rahe hai JNU mein aur Dovalji economics ke.

Let's say Mk1A flyaway cost for 97 aircraft is 43 million USD. Rafale flyaway cost is not 300 million USD. Mk1A is not 7 times cheaper but yes, you should get several Mk1A operating for the cost of getting one Rafale operating.

well our deal is cheaper than some other rafale buyers. indonesia, greece nd UAE orders were cheaper than us.

1:- india 36 rafale = 8.9 billion dollars.
that make per aircraft cost 247 million dollars.

2:- qatar 24 rafale = 6.9 billion dollars.
per aircraft cost 288 million dollars.

3:- indonesia 42 rafale = 8.1 billion dollars.
per aircraft cost 193 million dollars.

4:- egypt first 24 rafale = 6 billion dollars.
per aircraft cost 250 million dollars.

5:- greece first 18 rafale = 2.8 billion dollars.
per aircraft cost 156 million dollars.

6:- UAE 80 rafale = 19 billion dollars.
per aircraft cost 238 million dollars.

if we bought rafale in greece price of 156 million dollars (if its F3R version) nd later upgrade it with our own systems. we can get 114 rafale in cheaper price.

There must be somewhere, like Ashwini Vaishnaw and Chandrasekhar were found for railway min and MoS electronics ministry.

Thing is Leaderji is not at all interested in matters of defense as he is in the various BJP Manifesto/Chaddi ideological goals and Ekanami/Industry maxxxing matters.

Parrikar died, Bipin Rawat died and since their respective departments are under baboo or chandigarh lobby uniform auto-pilot
