Indian Air Force’s (IAF) soon to be delivered Rafale fighter jets would be fitted with the deadly SCALP and Meteor missiles, which are capable of hitting virtually any target in Pakistani territory, as early as next year Economic Times has reported.
These missiles are expected to outrank all existing weapon systems in the subcontinent and will give India a decisive edge over its enemies.
The Meteor air to air missile on the other hand has a range of 150 KM and will also outclass all other missile systems in the region, including Pakistan’s AMRAAM missiles fitted on its F-16s.
Both these attack systems on the Rafale would give it an edge in target engagement while also increasing its survival chances.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
