Has the IAF taken any Phalcon deliveries so far? If yes, will it be supporting the Su30s? And what are the numbers we are talking about?

For crying out loud - it's DACT - that means that the event is scripted to maximise outcomes for specific scenarios for all aircraft. It's not some winner/loser event. Anyone who thinks that exercises like Cope India/Alaska etc define a winner or demonstrate inherent superiority of a platform are ignoring the whole premise of DACT itself. and then we'll get subjected to 6 months of teenagers having arguments about things that they have no idea about... I await with baited breath - NOT

** Pedant mode on ** "I await with baited breath " should read "I await with bated breath " bated being an abbreviation of abated. ** Pedant mode off **

Pedant riposte "should read "I await with bated breath " bated being an abbreviation of abated. ** Pedant mode off **" ahh, but I could have been referring to halitosis triggered by frustration.... ;)

How do you know gf has not been eating bait fish? Try a few marinated herring sometime. Will give you fresh baited breath.

Or maybe he has some sort of chewing gum and/or mouthwash that attracts the ladies.

Ehh.. it's been done.. late last year, RSAF F-16s Block 52s had a DACT with various Indian types. link Indian press crowing about the IAF wooping the RSAF lead to another press release: link So bascially, what GF says will happen has already happened, so he can save his baited breath... ps: The RSAF F-16s at this exercise first went to France for DACT as well, and that was where the first confirmed sightings of Ebit HMS use by RSAF F-16s came from..
