alexrpt — Hollande Mistral blowback! India says no to 126 Rafale jets worth $22 billion. Now looks to BRICS partner, Russian Sukhoi fighters

Officially India says the planes just cost too much. Unofficially, no one wants to do business with a partner that breaks contracts due to outside (US/NATO) pressure. 
We warned that India was getting nervous about France’s lack of honor, and sure enough, the Mistral debacle has come home to bite Hollande in the ass.
Sanctity of contract and all that.

The Sukhoi's a better plane.

Yes, but building more planes for the same price wastes resources you could otherwise spend on more productive things.
