Like in Korea last year,it will may depend on "diplomatic questions",then
F.15 is on the way.
But like in Korea last year also,Rafale will certainly win technical
evaluations.So wait and see.

IMHO, it is going to be a tossup between Rafale and the Typhoon. F15

is
too complicated and the road map is too short to operate.


I think the F-15 has a very good chance. Bear in mind their next door
neighbours are getting Su-30s.
