So,you choose the Rafale above the Eurofighter?
Could you explain this decision,if you have the info?

probably the rafale's quoted price is less than typhoon . also india may have wanted an aircraft more suited for the strike role , as it already has sukhoi 30 MKI for air superiority and will have stealth PAK-FA for air superiority in future .

OF COURSE , the typhoon is better than rafale , but selection was done on basis of cost . anyway even though typhoon is better , rafale meets our needs better .

Are you sure. Maybe typhoon is better in air to air but in strike role i would say rafale is better.
