From looking at various articles and blogs, either the Mica deal would have to be linked to the Rafale or people like you should be salivating at the possibility of the next big scam!! Can a government be that suicidal?Justin P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15185950560111369781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-136541624174114257.post-50128647754553711052012-01-06T17:36:43.765+05:302012-01-06T17:36:43.765+05:30Thanks Justin.

Whether this is in any way in closed doors, connected to the Rafale, one will not know but can speculate should Rafale win. One does know that the Eurofighter is a worthy adversary though.<br /><br />Must confess I am not hazarding a guess when the announcement will be made though the last consignment of the buzz said the end of this month. With the government busy with elections and problems of their own, one wonders if that could be possible. But then we all live in hope!!

This came after the pretty hefty order for the Mica missiles. Have you heard the same? When can we get a solid idea of an announcement?<br /><br />ThanksJustin P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15185950560111369781noreply@blogger.com
