Navy zeroes in on naval Rafale; jet deal likely during PM's France visit
The PM will be in France on July 13-14 during which he will be the Guest of Honour at the Bastille Day Parade. The multi-billion dollar deal for 24-30 Rafale-Marine jets is likely to be announced during his two-day visit. Sources said that the Indian Navy has expressed its preference for the French Rafale Marine over the F-18 Super Hornets of the US. Though there is no clarity about the price, they are expected to be cheaper than the version bought by the IAF earlier.
