New Delhi: With the landing of the 36th and the final fighter jet, the Indian Air Force (IAF) on Thursday received the delivery of all the aircraft for which it had entered into a Rs 58,000-crore deal with France’s Dassault Aviation in 2016.
“The pack is complete. The last of the 36 IAF Rafales landed in India after a quick enroute sip from a UAE Air Force tanker,” the IAF said in an official statement.
A squadron of Rafale will monitor the western border and northern border with Pakistan, while another squadron will monitor the eastern border area of India.
