    A few days ago, French media reported that India rejected the plan to buy French "Rafale" fighters, or because it wanted to revitalize the twilight military products
    .

    According to the British Reuters news, Indian Prime Minister Modi led the veto of the military's plan to expand the purchase of French "Rafale" fighters, and persuaded the military to purchase domestic equipment
    .
    An Indian fighter that has been in development for more than 30 years will replace the French Rafale program
    .

    Indian defense officials confirmed that the central government had rejected the military's request to purchase more Rafale fighters from France's Dassault Aircraft and persuaded the military to accept a homegrown fighter
    that had been in development for 32 years.
    Modi's decision not only hit France's Dassault company hard, but also hit other aviation companies that are closely eyeing India's military aircraft market
    .

    Since coming to power in 2014, Modi's government has repeatedly said its primary goal is to cut off the military's fascination
    with foreign weaponry.
    India has become the world's
    largest arms importer.

    According to reports, Modi announced the purchase of 36 Rafale medium-range multirole fighters during his visit to France this year, and the Indian military hopes that the government will agree to purchase 44 more fighters of the same type
    .
    However, Indian Defense Minister Parikar has informed the Air Force that there is not enough money to expand the Rafale procurement program and must buy a homegrown improved fighter
