114 Rafale Deal: France Refuses to Share Source Code Despite Full Tech & Engine Offer?

In a major development ahead of the proposed 114 Rafale fighter jet deal, reports suggest that France may not share the critical source code of the aircraft’s electronic warfare systems with India. While France is reportedly ready to offer extensive technology transfer, local manufacturing under Make in India, and even assembly of the powerful M88 engine in India, the refusal to share the core software source code has raised important strategic questions. Why is the source code so important? Without it, India may face limitations in independently integrating indigenous weapons like Astra missiles, advanced sensors, or future upgrades without French approval. This could impact long-term operational autonomy. At the same time, France is offering deeper industrial cooperation, engine co-development possibilities for India’s future AMCA project, and expanded manufacturing partnerships with Indian companies. So what does this mean for India’s defense independence? Is this a deal breaker or a strategic compromise? And how will this shape India-France defense relations going forward? In this video, we break down: • What the source code issue really means • How it affects India’s operational freedom • What France is offering in return • The Make in India angle • The bigger geopolitical implications Watch till the end for a clear and balanced analysis. #rafale #rafaledeal #indiafrance #defencenews #mak inindia #indianairforce #militaryanalysis #geopolitics #defencetechnology #amca #sourcedcode #aviationnews
