How are French bros taking the blow to their national pride caused by the downing of their top-of-the-range, very expensive planes by old, cheap, export-version Chinese stuff?

This is why countries should never skimp on defense and just buy F35s
Why the fuck would you buy junk like Eurofighter, Rafale, Gripen when they all just get swarmed by cheaper jets or utterly mogged by F35s? Its just a way to save money and seeming practical while achieving nothing

both are old airframe design (but still newly produced)

Fake.

Never happened.

China/Paki lies.

I want to fuck the air intakes of the Rafale, they're so curvy and sexy.

a monkey with the most sophisticated piece of technology ever created is still a monkey

why blame the plane?
why not blame the pilot?
jeet chairforce isn't the same as the frog chairforce

If people judged equipment performance based on how jeets use it, everyone would be stuck with WW2 era crap.

Because India fucked it up so much they asked for a truce

The F35 makes you completely dependent on the US for any maintenance/repairs/parts/software. It's way worse than its predecessors or competitors in that regard.
It's essentially a "fighter-plane-as-a-service".

You cannot own a F35.

You dont buy a jet to own it. You buy it to make your country secure.

go against US interests in the region

"mmmh sorry sweaty this is a violation of the Terms of Service. Flying privileges removed for 30 days."

get your cities bombed by your enemies' F35 that have the pro-US weapon pack upgrade + pre-order fuel tank upgrade bonus installed

Never happened and would never happen unless you are threatening USA itself

It doesn't count, the jet was piloted by an Indian.

Swedojeet posting itt. Ask me how i'm 100% sure you're the same faggot who spent a whole thread blowing Tesla earlier today

Tell that to the international buyers

Indian pilots are just as good as any other pilots. The planes were shit. Never buy French made.

that's true of every jet

The aircraft didn’t sell a single piece until we bought it anyway

Good morning saar.

Indian Air Force are extremely incompetent desu, you could've given them F-35's and they would still fuck up because their training and tactics are absolutely garbage.

The Soviets used this same excuse when their planes in the Egyptian Air Force got steamrolled by Israel, so Egyptians had Russian trainers start flying the missions themselves only for them to get torn apart too

What the FUCK is with all the larp about F35s being good? Are we being raided by the military-industrial sector? Fuck off amerimutts.

Or threatening israel.
Or threatening whatever country the US has a vested interest in.
Or if some US president at point in the future dislikes you. They change every 4 years or so.

jeet pilots

I sleep

You could say many things about India (rightfully) but their military is not one of them. They've been in semi-war for several decades at this point. Same goes for their intelligence service. Its all competence and experience.
Like this guy said its just cope to cover up for shoddy hardware (eurojank equipment)

Name 1 (ONE) single incident of a F35 crashing or failing. You can't.

Somalians have been at war for many years now, they are competent at flying jet fighters.
All those tribes with endemic warfare? Security professionals.

Egyptian air force had first generation MiG-17 and Israel had Phantoms F-15 predecessor and couldn’t achieve air superiority

American F-16 is also getting humiliated in Ukraine

And the US can probably remotely disable it if you displease them.

even if it happened its jeets
at least now you know the worst possible scenario

Or if some US president at point in the future dislikes you.

He thinks the President is in charge.

Be comical to Ukraine

The Indians use a mish-mash of equipment sourced from Russia, China, France and home-grown stuff. It's a nightmare getting it all to work together. The Pakistanis used a complete Chinese integrated air-defence system with data-links better than the NATO ones. The air battle was extraordinarily one-sided.

russia obliterates hundreds of western hardware pieces in ukraine

crickets

one (1) french jet gets shot down

nonstop spam about how all of our stuff is bad

it do be like that

People were literally memeing the fuck out of German tanks when the hohols drove their Leopards into a minefield.

The Americans have a kill switch you idiot.

how is that a blow on french pride and not indian pride? it just shows you can give jeets top noth equipment but they dont have the skills to use it.

Not here, not that it matters because this board is ridden with bots and browns with VPN.

Don't say it out loud or you'll suddenly become Russian.

they dont you idiot

The butthurt on Anon Babble was glorious tho lmao

saaar

the russian arms export industry has totally collapsed around the world afte rthe ukraine war. even russia's most up to date missile defence systems are defeated by 1980s NATO tech lmao

Yea, French, Turkish, Korean and Chinese will eat up the rest of the Russian defense market.

Sad we never get to see the full meltdown since the redditors immediately mass report to their greasy janny and delete it

even russia's most up to date missile defence systems are defeated by 1980s NATO tech

Sick, when is Ukraine going to win the war?
