How the fuck countries like Bangladesh and Philippines operate and maintain the typhoons with their yearly low defense budget? Not talking about how they will purchase as its very easy through FMF and G2G deals
>>64268256They should go for 5th gen instead, better for the long run
That kind of countries double their economy each 10-15 years, it's incorrect to think in present when they could increase their military expending, they'll grow in general and Europe can finance the purchase to 10-20 years with their bank.
>>64268259The Philippines can neither afford nor be trusted with 5th gens, and if they can't afford F-35s they certainly can't afford Typhoons. Better to just reopen US airbases and host F-35 squadrons, or Chinese airbases in the case of Bangladesh. The Gripen E and F-16V are the only viable options for the flips, probably leaning toward the F-16 due to political/economic reasons and Sweden/Saab haven't exactly done the best job at marketing the Gripen.
>>64268256Meanwhile, Austria wanted 18 new Tranche 2 Typhoons, and ended up getting 15 used Tranche 1 Typhoons, for the increased price.
>>64268259I wonder if you buy a Chinese jet, does the localized UI come with that same font they always use for every single thing?
>>64268353ask pakistan.
>>64268399Cause they highly modifies most of the chink weapons?>>64268347Wait what the fuck happened there?
>>64268411>On 2 July 2002 the Austrian government announced its decision to buy the Typhoon as its new air defence aircraft, it having beaten the General Dynamics F-16 and the Saab JAS 39 Gripen in competition. The purchase of 18 Typhoons was agreed upon on 1 July 2003, and included training, logistics, maintenance and a simulator.>On 26 June 2007 Austrian Minister for Defense Norbert Darabos announced a reduction to 15 aircraft. The first aircraft was delivered on 12 July 2007 and formally entered service in the Austrian Air Force.>A 2008 report by the Austrian government oversight office, the Rechnungshof, calculated that instead of getting 18 Tranche 2 jets at a price of €109 million each, as stipulated by the original contract, the revised deal agreed by Minister Darabos meant that Austria was paying an increased unit price of €114 million for 15 partially used, Tranche 1 jets.>Austrian prosecutors are investigating allegations that up to €100 million was made available to lobbyists to influence the original purchase decision in favour of the Eurofighter.>In 2010, Darabos received the Grand Decoration for Services to the Republic of Austria in Gold with Sash.
>>64268472And then nothing came off it and they decided to keep flying their planes with the Austrians procuring three more second hand ones from Germanyhttps://www.scramble.nl/military-news/austria-will-receive-second-hand-eurofighters
>>64268259>can barely maintain gripens>dude, buy 5th genAnon...
>>64268256The Philippines does not operate and maintain much less can afford Yurofighters.They can't even ink 20-24 Vipers/Gripens, that's how inept and dirtpoor they are.
>>64268256just checked both of these cuntries wtf they both have almost similar economies >>64268684what about Vietnam? looks like another similar economy but better country than the other mentioned two
>>64268256As long as they don't buy American they made the right call.
>>64268256Deshi fag here, bangladesh air force had chosen EFT in 2019 and they would have finalized the deal with leonardo in 2020 but, pajeet land with their agent govt back then slowed/ halted the process. Pajeets even lured france to buy rafale for the bangladesh air force as the pajeets knew the air force had chosen yuro but this would at least slow or cancel the process which actually worked somehow and france will be with their retarded foreign policy everywhere. Not to mention, there are also some corruption findings now regarding 2-3 retired generals who were the advisers of the previous indian agent govt.BTW, China had also offered J-10B for the air force as the debut export back in 2013 but as usual indian agent govt felt threatened, they didn't get approval from delhi>>64268276Our defence budget currently is only 4-5 billions where 90% of the money are being used for salaries and maintenances, without doubling the money allocation I don't think its possible to operate EFT or 5th gens unless the expense also comes with the package Looks like so far, the J-10C has been confirmed now as the air force will be operating single-double engine combination fighters within the next 5-10 years replacing the miggers 29 and f-7 coffins
>>64268256Just buy some fa-50s and let America open an airbase. The money that gets spent of booze and ladyboys will cover your operational costs.
>>64268256>>64268259Samefagging chinks gtfo
>>64268912>what about Vietnam? looks like another similar economy but better country than the other mentioned twoVietnam has weak air force too, only 40 something potent fighters which make no sense for a country like this>>64269343>fa-50s Already in the service with the filipino air force and also a light attack which is almost useless in actual wars. Has brazilian super tucano light attackers tooBangladesh has also the italian-russian yak-130 for the light attacks
>>64268411>what the fuck happened thereAustrians bought the end of history memes, dotcom crash, inflation, and a dash of regular ol corruptionShills will try to snidely imply that Austria got stiffed but reality is that Austria downsized its order as a cost saving measure, decided in the following decades of peace that all it needed was Tranche 1s, and then dug its heels firmly on that score
The Philippines isn't interested in buying military equipment, their politicians and generals would rather steal shekels for mansions, luxury cars and overseas properties.One quick Google shows that they are having an insane corruption scandal with funding that could buy them anything short of F-35s.
>>64268305>or Chinese airbases in the case of Bangladesh.Already happened lmao>reported by kumarpoondia is gonna get fucked in every possible ways, theyre just a pawn even in global and geo-political equations >>64269473fuckyou retard ain't a chink and this aint same fagging cause that was both me the OP, you cant attach 2 pngs separately and by "they" I meant both Philippines and Bangladesh should go for the 5th gens Surprised ass did not expect this thread would get this kinda response, tank anons
Turkey is getting the Typhoons too what the fuck?https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/07/23/uk-and-turkey-sign-deal-for-eurofighter-jets-as-ankara-aims-to-upgrade-air-force Is this the result of Indian Rafale getting fucked in the ass literally by the paks?
>>64272500Not with the Turks. They're getting them because they're on reasonably good terms with the bongs and BAE and Rolls Royce are contributing to Turkey developing its aerospace industryRafale getting its shit pushed in by J-10 is definitely a factor for the Philippines though, since they have ongoing problems with Chinese incursion. It seems like the Flips didn't even consider Rafale, or it got rejected quickly through lack of confidence
>>64269484> Vietnam has weak air forceVietnam's Air Force is weak because it doesn't have any AWACS or dedicated EW aircraft. But all their modern aircraft's are operational because they have the capabilities to produce spare parts for it. Vietnam's logistics is unironically overpowered
>>64272585The Rafale got its shit pushed in so hard India is considering 114 more
>>64272734Guess that Trump is not going to sell them F-16s, let alone F-35, now that Modi is officially the best buddy of Putin
>>64272751art of the deal lmao
>>64272734Because Trump has tariffed the fuck out of them, so they're not buying American out of spite.Russian shit is a no-go, because it's worse than RafaleSo India gets more Rafales by default
Why Bangladesh Wants the Eurofighter Typhoon in 2025https://youtu.be/eTtFhkiTSJk
>>64272734India planned to buy moar rafales even before trump came to office lmao... ind-pak or tariff wars have nothing to do with it, check out their navy aircraft procurement plans timeline so, trump probably knew this hence the nigga pushed for negotiations through agricultural instead of defense equipment. Moreover, India has more chances to get Su-57 than any major murican jets.>>64272790>Russian shit is a no-go, because it's worse than RafaleIndia is already maybe in finalizing stage with Russia for stealth jets with significant ToTs.
>>64269343> bangla booze and ladyboysseriously?
>>64273361>Russia for stealth jetsNice meme Rajesh
>>64272734Wow kumar, screen cap thisYou are going to get fucked by China, USA, Russia and by all your neighboring countries simultaneously in the coming years, I mean this what happens when you blindly follow ancient Hindu diplomacy and looks like the french will be your only allies who has also shit diplomacy.>>64274912Rajesh is not wrong I guesshttps://www.wionews.com/india-news/su-57-in-india-s-skies-russia-looks-to-new-delhi-for-joint-su-57-manufacturing-tech-transfer-1756887497991>>64274608https://bwhdrinks.co.uk/?product=banglahttps://www.pinalove.com/filipina-ladyboy-dating.php
>>64275732Transfer of Technology is a glorified way to say licensing for assemblage and making your own spares.Engines, radars and seats aren't part of the transfer, if they receive some of those are under a different agreement.
>>64275742Russia is considered all weather ally of India so, this could happen.
>>64275742over 80% of indian hardware are russian origin>>64276866If russia were that then what happened in the recent clash with pakistan? Except for israel and afghanistan no one supported india
Yuro has become better than Rafaal now?
