The French government has requested India to immediately ground its "Rafale" fighter jets.

Prior to this, the Pakistan Air Force shot down three "Rafale" fighter jets in a single day, prompting France to urge India to cease using the "Rafale" fighter jets in operations against Pakistan.

This situation has been quite embarrassing for France.

The Rafale fighter jet project began in the 1980s with the aim of creating an "all-rounder" capable of performing multiple tasks such as air superiority, ground attack, reconnaissance, and nuclear deterrence. It features extremely high maneuverability and agility.

The conflict between India and Pakistan has shattered the "invincible" reputation of the Rafale, dealing a severe blow to France's arms exports.

Therefore, France urgently called for a halt.

Is it due to defects in the aircraft, operational issues, or the superior strength of the opponent?

The Pakistani Defense Minister claimed that the Indian pilots' inadequate operation significantly reduced the performance of the aircraft.

One thing is certain, the J-10C is by no means inferior to the Rafale.
