Re: JSF,"turkey or talisman"?
So they might prefer the F-22 to the F-35. Does that surprise you? Notice what they are NOT saying: That Australia should ditch the F-35 for the Sukhoi, EF, Rafale, Gripen, etc. They know that there is no choice apart from buying American planes. The only plane American plane better than F-35 is F-...

Re: India selects Typhoon & Rafale for MMRCA shortlist - Par
False, both the F-16 and F-18 met the offset and ToT requirements. No, the AESA & its source codes were not part of the ToT, which is a critical part of the aircraft. Boeing was already outsourcing plane doors to India. There was little evidence that they would have help India's aerospace move ...

France did not impose sanctions after the 1998 nuclear tests. Actions speak louder than words. I wouldn't be worried about sanctions after a test, I would be worried about sanctions during a war.
