The main reason why many in Greece supported the purchase of French Rafale fighters was the fact that their advantages are unknown to the Turkish Air Force. This gives the Greek Air Force an advantage and puts in a difficult position the Turkish pilots who have not faced the Rafale in the field. But is that so, or is it the responsibility of France that Turkey finally knows the secrets of the Rafale, before Greece even acquires them? Last week, much was written about Qatar's decision to relocate 36 of its aircraft to Turkey, including Rafale. This action cancels the primary reason why Greece acquired Rafale. The reaction of the French was unfortunately lukewarm trying to downplay the issue. However, as it seems from the photo, things are worse!
The photo that exposes France(Anatolian Eagle 2021)
He is a pilot of the Pakistan Air Force, as seen from the flag on his arm. Pilots of Azerbaijan and Turkey are sitting next to him and behind him, as part of the "Anatolian Eagle 2021" exercise, organized by Turkey together with its allies, Pakistan, Qatar and, for the first time, Azerbaijan. Few noticed a detail, which is clearly reflected in the second photo in the red circle. The Pakistani pilot in question carried the Rafale fighter badge on his arm above the Pakistani flag. This is where the questions begin, because Pakistan does not have Rafale. So where and to what extent does the Pakistani pilot carry this badge?
The story goes back a long way, before Greece decided to procure Rafale fighter jets, that is, since India decided to procure them in the distant 2016. In April 2019, an article in the Indian "Hindustan Times" blamed France because, according to the columnist Rezaul Hasan Laskar, while India had ordered Rafale "Pakistan sent two of its pilots to Paris to be trained in them, before they even get into operational readiness by the Indian Air Force"! That revelation spread, forcing the French Ambassador to India, Alexander Zingler, to refute it, calling it "fake news"! Laskar's article was written in 2019, but referred to a 2016 report written in Arabic, which stated that "France's Dassault Aviation signed the Rafale agreement with India in September 2016 and shortly afterwards in November, two Pakistanis pilots went to train in France ". Other analysts, citing reports, have made it clear that Pakistani exchange officers ("Pakistani exchange officers") are learning the secrets of the Rafale by flying these fighter jets on behalf of Qatar. They inform, of course, their aviation about how they should deal with them in air battles. And as things began to normalize between India and France, Qatar ordered an additional 12 Rafale in 2017, bringing their total to 36, in a total deal that reached 6.5 billion euros. And yes, it's a lot of money for Dassault, but it's clear that Indian journalists were right to shout. The Qatari Air Force has Pakistani pilots in its ranks who learn the secrets of the Rafale.
Greece was added to the list of countries that supplied Rafale, with the result that the value of the aircraft rises in the international market, since the Greek aviation is one of the best in the world and its selection adds credibility to the manufacturer Rafale. Greece, moreover, has been a customer of the French Dassault for almost half a century. The photo shows the French and the Dassault company as on the one hand we have countries like India and Greece, which give billions to acquire and maintain Mirage and Rafale from the backwardness of their citizens and on the other hand we have Pakistanis and Turks, who learn the strategic secrets of these aircraft from the Qataris. We are not talking about simply learning the secrets of the aircraft, the Indians at worst having lost their advantage in the air battle against Pakistan, but for something worse. We are talking about relocation of Rafale (4.5th generation) from Qatar to Turkey, with the result that the Turkish Air Force may be able to use them in a collision with Greece over the Aegean or the Mediterranean! Greece rushed to acquire Rafale and Turkey, with the tacit tolerance of the French, managed to have them first and even for free in its territory! What do French Defense Minister Florence Parly and French Ambassador to Athens Patrick Mezonav have to say about all this? Those who supported the purchase of Rafale in Greece are proving to be wrong as France is an dishonest supplier and partner. The Greek government has a huge responsibility, especially when we have all heard in the past about Pakistanis flying various types of Turkish aircraft in the Aegean, even though we had heard about what happened between India and Pakistan.
