Hey guys, Shreyas here.

In this video I'm gonna tell you what are these Rafale fighter jets and how these jets work.

SORRY FOR LATE VIDEO 😛

We have received 5 Rafale aircraft from France.
India has signed an inter-governmental agreement with France to purchase 36 Rafale fighter jets at a cost of Rs. 58,000 Crores. 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic Rafale Specifications:

Wing span: 10.90 m
Length: 15.30 m
Height: 5.30 m
Overall empty weight: 10 tonnes
External load: 9.5 tonnes
Max. take-off weight: 24.5 tonnes
Fuel (internal): 4.7 tonnes
Fuel (external): up to 6.7 tonnes
Ferry Range: 3,700 km
Top Speed: 1.8 Mach at high altitude
Landing ground run: 450 m (1,500 ft)
Service ceiling: 50,000 ft

DISCLAIMER: The five Rafale fighter jets that land in Ambala on Wednesday morning will resurrect the Number 17 Golden Arrows squadron of the Indian Air Force. It will take the IAF’s squadron strength to 31. When all the 36 Rafale jets are delivered by 2022, it will take it to 32 squadrons, still well below the 42 squadrons of the sanctioned strength.

Equipped with a wide range of weapons, the Rafale is intended to perform air supremacy, interdiction, aerial reconnaissance, ground support, in-depth strike, anti-ship strike and nuclear deterrence missions. The Rafale is referred to as an "omnirole" aircraft by Dassault.

Top questions answered:

1. How many Rafale jets India have?
36 Rafale
India has contracted 36 Rafale multi-role fighter jets from France in fly-away condition with 13 India Specific Enhancements (ISE) under a €7.87 billion Inter-Governmental Agreement (IGA) signed in September 2016.

2. Is Rafale the best fighter jet?
As disagreements arose, France decided to develop its own fighter – the Rafale. The fighter jet first entered service in 2001 and ever since has been regarded as one of the best military aircraft in the world.

3. Why is Rafale so costly?
In November 2017, Congress alleged a 'huge scam' in Rafale fighter jets deal. Saying that the contract violated the procurement procedure, the Congress party blamed the government for promoting of 'crony capitalist friends' at the cost of a defence public sector unit, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited.

4. Is Rafale better than Sukhoi?
Sukhoi is much better than Rafale. The speed of su 30mki is 2.1 to 2.2 mach. And most important point is that now su 30mki has Brahmos missile. ... Another fact that Su30 MKI is a 4.5 gen Fighter , puts it in an entirely different class than Rafale.

5. Why did India buy only 36 Rafales?
“Why do you think only 36 Rafales were bought,” Gen Rawat had said explaining why according to him it makes sense to buy in a staggered manner as it would reduce the cost and also staggered servicing.

Our honorable Prime Minister has welcomed these magic machines by tweeting that there is no virtue like protecting the nation, there is no vow like defense of the nation.
Our prime minister has tweeted this in sanskrit:
राष्ट्ररक्षासमं पुण्यं,

राष्ट्ररक्षासमं व्रतम्,

राष्ट्ररक्षासमं यज्ञो,

दृष्टो नैव च नैव च।।

नभः स्पृशं दीप्तम्...
स्वागतम्!

Translated to English:

Virtues in the national defense, 

 राष्ट्ररक्षासमं व्रतम्, 

 Sacrifice in National Defense, 

 Drishto nave f nave f. 

 नभः स्पृशं दीप्तम् ... 
 Welcome!
