India Moves Closer to Mega Deal for 114 Rafale Fighter Jets for Indian Air Force

India is moving closer to its biggest-ever fighter jet acquisition, with the Centre reportedly finalising a Letter of Request for 114 Dassault Rafale jets for the Indian Air Force under the Multi-Role Fighter Aircraft programme.
The deal is expected to be pursued through a government-to-government agreement with France and aims to strengthen the IAF’s combat capabilities amid declining squadron strength.
Reports suggest that nearly 90 aircraft could be manufactured in India through a partnership involving Dassault Aviation, while the remaining jets may arrive in fly-away condition.
The Indian Air Force already operates 36 Rafale fighters, while the Indian Navy is also preparing to induct Rafale Marine aircraft in the coming years.
