Medium Multi-role Combat Aircraft

Amid the Rafale deal row, senior Congress leader Prithviraj Chavan has claimed that the government last month floated international tenders to buy around 100 medium multi-role combat aircraft.

Is even one Rafale screw going to be manufactured in India?

India and the UK today decided to soon launch negotiations for civil nuclear cooperation during a meeting between the External Affairs Minister and her British counterpart, who pushed for sale of its Medium Multi-Role Combat Aircraft (MMRCA) despite its Euro-fighter Typhoon losing out to France's Rafale.

The Indian Air Force or IAF may lose its traditional conventional edge against Pakistan if the contract to buy 126 Rafale medium multi-role combat aircraft or MMRCA is not clinched immediately, senior IAF officials told Defence Minister Arun Jaitley at an extensive briefing recently.

The Ministry of Defence is investigating the possibility that crucial and expensive equipment bought from the US includes defective Chinese parts. Defence Minister A K Antony today told the Rajya Sabha that the"Government is verifying reports" about this.

India is all set to dash through the last lap in its quest to buy 126 medium multi-role combat aircraft, estimated to be worth $10.4 billion, when the Defence Ministry on Friday opens the commercial bids of Eurofighter Typhoon and Rafale to take a final call on the lowest bidder.
