Well Rafale Fulfills all Requirements after being cheaper in twin jet long range market, price at which Rafale has been offered to india edge past Euro fighter, Lockheed Martin’s F16 and SAAB’s Gripen-E. Dassualt aviation has already impressed india by their Mirage 2000. So Rafale was obvious choice.

2. Why we are buying a so called 'Overpriced' Rafale?
As per the reports the expected price of Rafale was estimated to between $212m to $220m.French present in figure from 2009 indicated upwards of $220m excluding inflation from 2009-2011.
•Qatar previously purchased 24 Rafales for $7.02bn which is around $300 million per jet
•Egypt bought 24 Rafales for $5.9bn which is $245 million per jet
•India purchased 36 Rafales for $8.6bn which is around $240 million per jet which also includes weapons, spares, maintenance package etc.
The recently signed agreement of 12 Rafales by Qatar is a follow on order and India would get the follow on order at 60% of the current price. Moreover, India has 50% offset clause where half that money would be re-invested in India (under Make In India program). So if somebody says Qatar bought Rafale at cheaper prize educate them about follow on orders.
2. Offsets offer to Reliance, any hidden deal between Modi and Ambani?
The Defence Acquisition Policy, has selected four key strategic platforms that require private participation – Submarine, Helicopter,Single-engine aircraft and Armoured vehicle/main battle tank.

Here for the sake of argument, we will focus on Aircraft part only
•Adani group has tied up with SAAB, Sweden to manufacture Gripen-E.
•Tata Advance system has a tie-up with Lockheed Martin, USA.
•Reliance Defence has partnered with Dassault Aviation to make aerostructure parts for Rafale aircraft. The joint venture will execute an offset obligation as the deal requires Rafale to engage Indian suppliers for components under Make In India program.

Here is the catch......Those People who say how can Reliance(read Ambani) with no Defence Manufacturing history can be approved by Defence Acquisition Council (DAC).....here is the answer.
Fact is.....Reliance already builds ships for Indian navy at their pipavav shipbuilding yard.
Reliance Naval and Engineering Limited was founded in 1997, way before Modi came into Politics :-)

Here few links to read
* Company History :https://en.wikipedia.org/.../Reliance_Naval_and...

* Corporate profile : https://www.rnaval.co.in/

* Reliance Defence delivers 2 patrol vessels to Navy : https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/.../article9788359.ece

* Reliance Infrastructure seeks Russian partner to make submarines, ships at Pipavav Defence: https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/.../art.../47378236.cms

* Reliance Defence to build 14 patrol ships for Coast Guard : https://www.livemint.com/.../Reliance-Defence-to-build-14...

So the Myth is busted that Reliance had no Defence Background :-)
Also.....Modi has no hand in assigning this offset proposal to Reliance.....here are the facts.
* RPF & DPP defence procurement model by both UPA & NDA has no mention of who will get offsets, it has been left up to "Manufacturers" to decide. So it was a whole and sole discretion and decision of Dassault....not Modi :-)
•Total transfer of technology is in various parts in which some going to DRDO worth ₹9000 cr and rest is split in various companies in which reliance emerges as largest.

3. Secrecy Clause and its implications and significance.

Maybe you like: Trending shirts

“Any information and/or material will fundamentally be classified”
This is what clause states. you can say it has no mention of price. now one should understand price is a kind of information just like technology is referred as both information and material depending upon its form.
how do you certain that secrecy clause is not being used to hide corruption or bribery??
- all documents are being submitted to controller & audit general (CAG).
- Former cabinet committee & security council members have high level security clearances, for example Anand Sharma or Manish Tiwari have high security access they can go through all related documents and can even ask for confidential briefings.

Hope this post will clear some doubts of Educated People.
