A diplomacia brasileira repetia ontem “By By Rafale”. O mesmo valia para o “Gripen”.
Será: "Bye, Bye, Rafale". Vaya patada al inglés
Noticia sobre India: ese contrato es crítico para Dassault. Y aporta datos interesantes sobre el precio del Rafale, que ha crecido exponencialmente al no tener exportaciones y con la reducción francesa a 225 cazas (originalmente 320, luego 295 y luego 286):
Coste total del programa Rafale con I+D (a 2013): 44.200 millones de euros.
Coste por unidad de Rafale con I+D para 225 aviones: casi 200 millones de euros.
MMRCA: A do or die contract for Dassault's military business
May 12, 2013
...
In the latest strategic defence review carried out under the insistence of the French government, last month, France has capped the purchase of Rafale fighter jets to 225. Originally, the Rafale programme envisaged production of 320 aircraft for the French government but this was cut to 286 later and now to 225. Till date, only 180 of them have been ordered; all of them by France. The company is yet to find an export customer for its front-line fighter jet.
As a result, the cost of Rafale to France has climbed steadily. The French Senate assessment of the 2013 national defence budget pegs the total cost of the Rafale programme, including development expenses, to the French exchequer at €44.2 billion. Dividing the total programme cost with number of aircraft to be built i.e. 225 gives a per aircraft cost of €196.4 million.
A cut to Rafale numbers for France poses a challenge to Dassault’s military business which is mainly dependent on Rafale sales.
Given the situation, bagging MMRCA, which envisages purchase of 126 aircraft with an option for buying 63 more, is critical for Dassault.
