Another point are the missions;Rafale is very versatile,
Typhoon is an interceptor.
I don't know what you or the partners of Typhoon think about it,
but at the moment,and for now 15 years,it may be more useful to have a

good
multi-purpose aircraft,than an interceptor.



This is nonsense.

Typhoon has been designed from the beginning as a multi-role
aircraft. For air-to-surface missions, the Eurofighter can carry
Brimstone and DWS 37 anti-armor weapons-three under
each wing and one under the center fuselage, as well as
laser-guided and GPS guided weapons.
