Indian Rafales at Bordeaux

Post by Polleke_NL »

Noticed Indian 4 rafales outside Dassault this afternoon, 2 x A and 2 x B, the B's arrived this morning, probably from Mont de Marsan as I noticed the RB005 and RB007 there yesterday. Does anyone know what the options are for the aircraft that are currently being testflown as serials can hardly be read due to the heatwaves...
Also noted a AdlA C130H at Sabena technics, can anyone confirm her serial?

RB001 to RB008 and BS001 to BS009 have all been noted (minus the ones that have been delivered!)

P.S. the B models could have arrived from Istres as they do use the Dassault facility there too.

One B was either RB005 or RB006, can't be sure due to the heathaze...

@Polleke: Minor correction, only the prototypes are Rafales A. These are Rafales C.
