The Indian Air Force signs up for 36 Rafale aircraft

Thales equips the Rafale with a wide range of equipment and systems providing it with multi-sensor capability. This includes the RBE2 AESA (Active Electronically Scanned Array), the first European combat radar with active electronic scanning antenna, the Spectra electronic warfare system, optronics, the communication, navigation and identification system, most of the cockpit display systems, power generation systems and a logistics support component. These systems represent around 25% of the total value of the Rafale.

“

All Thales teams would like to thank the Indian authorities for the trust they have placed in us. Rafale's new export success demonstrates our ability, alongside Dassault Aviation and its partners, to constantly meet the customer's highest expectations through innovation, the mastery of advanced technology and industrial excellence
