3 More Rafales Jets Joined Indian Air Force After Mid-Air Refuelling By UAE
The fresh batch of Rafales jets has taken off from Paris for India on 31 March 2021. These fighter jets that are taking off from France will be provided Mid Air Refueling by the UAE. And the next batch of Rafales after this is expected to happen sometime later. So India’s getting three more Rafales fighter jets that happens today on 1 April 2021. And they remember again, we’ll be joining the Golden Arrow Squadron in Ambala. As it was reported earlier, these fighter jets will fly directly from France, and will also be assisted in the Mid Air Refueling by the UAE. These planes could be landing in Gujarat, and that could happen as early as this evening.
These are the fourth batch of Rafales that has to land in India shortly and they have already taken off from France and they will be reaching and landing India now. And with these new 3 Rafales jets out of the total strength of the report in India will be 14 now, and very soon another batch of seven Rafales aircraft will be in India. As a second Squadron that has to be raised in Hasimara Town in West Bengal would be ready by the 16th of April.
So, now, the fourth batch of Rafales jets is shortly going to land in India and with is the might of the airport is going to enhance. As you already heard the ambassador of plants has said that delivery of Rafales aircraft total of 36 is on schedule by 2022. The total number of 36 Rafales jets would be a part of the Indian Air Force fleet. So now, the next batch which will be soon in India will be inducted in the force for the Golden Arrow Squadron that is a part of the Ambala Squadron will be in India shortly.
Yes, this is the key development that is taking place because Rafales jets are coming to the Indian side. They have very key importance keeping in view the situation that was on the borders and it a now it will take the total strength of this Rafales to the Indian side to the 14. It has taken off from Paris today morning and will be reaching Gujarat by tomorrow evening.
This is what we are told that it will be expected to land at 7 pm in Gujarat, and United Arab Airbus 330 will be providing the Mid refueling to these Rafales who are joining the Indian Squadron at the Gulf of Oman. And what we are also picking up that this will take the total number of golden arrows quarter to the 14.
So this is a big success for the Indian side as India has been on its way to strengthen its forces and it is very important to keep in view, the kind of a specialty these Rafales have, as it is equipped with the latest modern weaponry system, and that can do a lot of damage to the adversary and has strengthened the Indian forces.
