Perhaps the announcement of the sale of 12 Rafale to Serbia tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, on the occasion of President Macron's visit to Serbia.
The two capitals - Paris and Belgrade - both want this transaction. “Our hope is to see this discussion come to fruition on the occasion of the visit” of Emmanuel Macron to Serbia at the invitation of the Serbian president, explained the Élysée. Aleksandar Vucic told AFP on Wednesday that he hoped to conclude the highly anticipated purchase of French fighter planes during the French president's visit.
 
Just now, the French news channel BFM TV is broadcasting a banner on which it is written that "Serbia has concluded the purchase of 12 French Rafale combat aircraft in the presence of Emmanuel Macron."

There have been articles about electronic warfare tests between Rafale and Su-35 in Egypt, where the Rafale won, but, as far as I know, it was fake news. Apparently these tests never took place. The sources were a Breaking Defense article and a tweet, both from Mahmoud Gamal, but I never found either. They both disappeared.

Then, as at one time Russia bought Western equipment, notably French, to equip the Flanker series aircraft,
I imagine that French electronics was superior to Russians in terms of avionics, especially now that Russia has struggling to equip themselves with Western components. But perhaps that will change in the future, especially with China's possible aid to Russia.

They told us that,the radar of Rafale make a blind vision to Su-35,of course I don't mean any offence,because
I know the Sukhoi Su-35 is one of the best fighter have been ever made in my opinion,but I can't believe this ?.

It was never confirmed and the original source removed the original article and tweet. For me, this is fake news.
 
No, it's fake news too... Already debunked Yesterday...

Rafale possibly in competition with the F-15EX in Morocco :
In recent days, a rumor about a possible Rafale order has been gaining momentum in Morocco. Until now, only the resumption of around thirty UAE Mirage 2000-9s had been brought forward. However, it has also been reported that the Royal Air Force is interested in Boeing's F-15EX [or Eagle II]. Which was not confirmed subsequently...

For its part, the Moroccan news site Hespress wonders. “Could Morocco be the next buyer of Rafale fighter jets,” he wonders. He therefore sought insight from Mohamed Badine El Yattioui, professor of strategic studies at the National Defense College of the United Arab Emirates.
“The various discussions around the purchase of the Rafale or the F-15 have been underway for some time, and Emmanuel Macron's decision, at the end of July, to recognize Morocco's sovereignty over the southern provinces will certainly play a role in the balance,” he said. And to recall that the Royal Air Forces have “always had French and American aircraft” and that “the Rafale therefore constitutes the good option to replace the Mirage F1”, which was also brought to the ASTRAC standard in 2011.


The manufacturer revealed that it has entered into new negotiations with other countries.
Dassault aviation's chief executive said: "I think we can expect another contract before the end of the year." He said it would be a "real challenge" that would ensure the company's sustainability.
The news comes at a time that coincides with French President Emmanuel Macron's upcoming visit to Morocco after Paris recognized the Moroccanness of the Sahara.
If the deal is in Morocco's favor, it will most likely be at the expense of the American F-15 EX fighter jet in order to diversify weapons sources.

As usual, to be confirmed.
 
Hi,

but for UAE,I heard that,they had been cancelled from another sources (Arabic sources) ?.
