Is Rafale dead? by Charles Talleyrand
I understand that the order to Dassault is for 28 aircraft, with an option of 20 more. However, I have read on the web that Dassault is to deliver 1 Rafale this year, and only 4 next year. I have also read that there are only 13 operational Rafales with the French Military. The slow speed of...
