Rafales News
Speaking to French magazine Challenges just before the Paris Air Show, Trappier said, “The reports of Indian Rafales being lost are inaccurate.”
In a major boost for the Indian Air Force`s firepower, at least 10 new Rafale fighter aircraft would be joining its fighter fleet leading to the formation of the second squadron of the planes.
At a time when India is facing tensions along the border with China and Pakistan, New Delhi will receive a major boost as the first consignment of Rafale fighter aircraft would start getting inducted into the Indian Air Force at Ambala by July-end.
The Indian Air Force (IAF) would like to induct more Rafale fighter planes, but any decision on this would be taken in the future depending on desirability, Air Chief Marshal Arup Raha said on Tuesday.
On Light Combat Aircraft (LCA), Parrikar said the squadron should be formed by July.
