Default French Rafale jet beats Eurofighter in $10bn India deal

I'm a little suprised...I honestly believe the Eurofighter was the better of the two.

Quote:
French firm Dassault has emerged as the lowest bidder for a $10bn (£6.3bn) contract to supply India jet fighters.
Dassault Aviation will now enter final negotiations before signing the deal that will supply India's air force with 126 Rafale aircraft.
Correspondents say this is one of the world's biggest defence deals and is a major setback for rival bidder, the Eurofighter Typhoon.
